| fsufitch | so far it's fun | 17:18 |
| fsufitch | yvl: i realised what was wrong with your views not working properly at the sprint | 17:54 |
| fsufitch | for a teacher to see the teacher views, they *need* to be in the "Teachers" group :) | 17:54 |
| *** replaceafill has joined #schooltool | 18:45 | |
| fsufitch | replaceafill: hi. i noticed you tried to contact someone earlier. need some help? | 18:52 |
| replaceafill | fsufitch, yes i was translating some strings to spanish and i wanted to know what a term was exactly? | 18:53 |
| fsufitch | a term in the schooltool way of naming it? | 18:53 |
| replaceafill | yes | 18:53 |
| th1a | What terms? | 18:53 |
| fsufitch | i'm not 100% sure, but i believe a term is like a section of the school year | 18:53 |
| fsufitch | th1a: terms in the calendar | 18:53 |
| th1a | Not "term" as "a word." ;-) | 18:54 |
| replaceafill | fsufitch, i've seen the word translated in spanish and doesn't match what you describe | 18:54 |
| th1a | You mean in the current translation? | 18:54 |
| replaceafill | yes | 18:55 |
| th1a | What does it mean now? | 18:55 |
| replaceafill | well, i've seen it translated as "termino" and "trimestre" | 18:57 |
| replaceafill | i guess "trimestre" match the word in a calendar context | 18:58 |
| replaceafill | but it implies a 3 months period exactly | 18:58 |
| th1a | What does termino mean? | 19:00 |
| jelkner | how about período? | 19:00 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:00 |
| replaceafill | periodo was the one i was thinking of | 19:00 |
| replaceafill | it's close to what we use here | 19:01 |
| th1a | Note that in the upcoming release terms in schooltool will be almost completely redesigned, and there will be more specific types of terms. | 19:01 |
| replaceafill | :O | 19:02 |
| th1a | ignas is working on that right now. | 19:03 |
| th1a | It might actually make it easier, since currently "term" covers a lot of different things. | 19:03 |
| ignas | not sure about more specific | 19:03 |
| ignas | I am keeping terms as parts of a schoolyear | 19:03 |
| ignas | they will not overlap | 19:03 |
| ignas | but I am not adding the semester/trimester | 19:03 |
| ignas | distinction at the moment | 19:03 |
| th1a | OK. | 19:04 |
| ignas | replaceafill: efectively term is a word used to describe things that can be both "semesters" and "trimesters" | 19:04 |
| th1a | So 'terms' are a set of non-overlapping divisions of a school year. | 19:04 |
| ignas | at least that is how I understand it | 19:04 |
| th1a | Just making sure we're on the same page. | 19:05 |
| ignas | we needed one word, because writing "semester/trimester" all over the system would be cumbersome ;) | 19:05 |
| replaceafill | yes | 19:06 |
| replaceafill | ignas, does "period" sound right to you? | 19:30 |
| th1a | Well, we use that to define time during the school day in English. | 19:30 |
| ignas | a time span of one lesson | 19:30 |
| replaceafill | hmm | 19:30 |
| replaceafill | here we use it for a time span of a month or trimester | 19:32 |
| *** wbrady has quit IRC | 19:33 | |
| th1a | It is certainly ok if you use terms consistent with your local usage. | 19:34 |
| th1a | I'm just warning you that you'll also need a word for the time span of a lesson. | 19:34 |
| replaceafill | is it "class" ok for that? | 19:36 |
| replaceafill | we call "clase" to a period of 50 mins - 1 hour | 19:37 |
| th1a | Well, we don't use the english word "class" at all, since it has so many meanings, including in programming. | 19:37 |
| replaceafill | :) | 19:37 |
| th1a | But "clase" might be best for you. | 19:37 |
| replaceafill | i think so | 19:37 |
| th1a | Also, we don't use "period" that much. | 19:37 |
| th1a | It isn't as important as "term." | 19:37 |
