Event Types describe all the different things you might include in scheduled events managed through Elentra. Examples include lectures, labs, directed independent learning, exams, lunch, etc. and the list of event types is customizable. Event types are used several ways:

  • any event added to a schedule must have an event type defined; you can add multiple event types to one scheduled event

  • the audience of an event will see its type

  • the Learning Event Types by Course Report uses event type to summarize the use of different events types within a course

How to manage event types

  • You must be logged in as an Admin user to manage event types.

  • Navigate to Admin>System Settings.

  • If you have multiple organisations, click the name of the organisation for which you want to manage event types.

  • Click 'Learning Event Types' from the left sidebar. A list of existing event types will be displayed.

  • Click 'Add Event Type' to add a new event type.

  • Complete the required fields, noting the following: Description: This field is optional, however it is visible to users when they create events so you may wish to provide it. When users add events to the system through Admin>Manage Events, they can mouseover event types and view the provided description (see above). Medbiquitous Instructional Method: If you plan to use the Curriculum Inventory Reporting tool to report to the AAMC it is recommended that you map your organisation's event types to the Medbiquitous Instructional Methods. If you don't, the CIR tool will omit events with unmapped event types.

  • Click 'Save'.

  • The newly added assessment characteristic will now appear on the event types list.

  • To modify an existing event type, click on it.

  • Edit it as needed and click 'Save'.

  • To delete an existing event type, click the checkbox beside the event type you wish to delete.

  • Click 'Delete Selected'.

  • Confirm your choice.

  • You will be returned to the list of event types.
