Course Type (NJ Course Roster)

How does Genesis determine the "Course Instruction Type" for the Course Submission?

Courses by default, are marked as "Standard Course taught by Teacher(s) within the District" - this means that Genesis will mark the course as "S1" or "S2" appropriately, when the data is pulled to Course Roster file.

Class-sections with a single teacher being reported to NJ Smart will be set as "S1" while classes with multiple reported teachers will be automatically be marked as "S2" for instruction type.

Course-sections marked as "Standard Course" that do not have a teacher, will NOT be included in the Course Submission

On the other hand, if any student is scheduled into a Course marked as either:

• Remote course physically attended by the student off-site and taught by staff not assigned to your district
• College course taught by staff not assigned to your district
• Online course taught by staff not assigned to your district

in your school curriculum, Genesis will report Course Instruction Type as 'R', 'C', or 'O' respectively on the Course Roster Student file.

If you have 'R', 'C', or 'O' courses in Genesis,  a Teacher is not required on the sections of that course.

The course will still be included in the Course Submission, but only on the Student Data portion of the report.

This assumes the course itself, is not marked "Exclude from NJSmart".

If any of these classes ARE assigned to an in-district teacher, it will be reported in the Staff file the same as any other course.

Courses not taught by in district teachers will not appear in the staff course file.
