COVID-19 – Guidelines for the Use of Classrooms and Lecture Halls

, , ,

Due to the current health situation, the implementation of the Ministry of Higher Education’s circular requires that classroom capacity be reduced by 50% at the Montpellier campus. More information in this article.

 

Update as of October 23, 2020: Like the Montpellier site, the Nîmes site has just been placed under an enhanced alert status.

The measures are therefore being extended to the Nîmes site. See the relevant paragraphs below.

Lectures

Lectures are held in person, with the number of students in attendance limited and the maximum capacity of 50% of seats occupied strictly enforced.

Specific Provisions for PASS / PACES in Montpellier

PASS: Lectures will be held in person, with attendance limited to a maximum of 50% of the room’s capacity, with every other seat left empty. The lectures will be available on Moodle later today.

PACES: Lectures are already available online.

Specific Provisions for PASS / PACES in Nîmes

PASS: Two lecture halls are available on the ADV campus and one lecture hall on the Flahault campus; students who cannot find seats will be able to access the courses on Moodle. Access to the lecture hall will be restricted once all seats are filled.

PACES: Lectures are already available online.

Specific Provisions for the First Cycle in Montpellier

A survey will be conducted the day before classes begin to determine whether you will attend in person. Other students will be able to follow the course via Zoom or Moodle after it has been recorded, if possible.

Specific Provisions for the First Cycle in Nîmes

Lectures are held in person, with attendance limited to a maximum of 50% of the room’s capacity, and with every other seat left empty.

Students who are unable to find a seat will be able to access the courses on Moodle.

Specific Provisions for the Master's Program in Montpellier

Lectures are held in person with a limit on the number of students present (100 per lecture hall or 25 per classroom for the ADV Health Campus, and 50% capacity for UPM classrooms and lecture halls). We are therefore offering a hybrid attendance model. You will receive information specific to your course unit (UE) or module (MI) from program administrators or university administrative offices. Students who are unable to attend in-person classes will have access to recordings made available as soon as possible for DFASM1 and DFASM2 cohorts. For UE1 and UE10 of DFASM3, a Zoom link will be sent to you.

For students currently enrolled in the MIC program, the structure remains the same.

Specific Provisions for the Master's Program in Nîmes

Lectures are held in person, with a maximum of 50% of the room’s capacity, with students occupying every other seat.

Students who are unable to find a seat will be able to access the courses on Moodle.

For the "best-of" events, large-capacity venues or auditoriums will be used to allow for in-person attendance with attendance tracking.

Provisions Regarding the Midwifery Program in Montpellier

When it is not possible to accommodate the entire class due to capacity limits reduced to 50%, classes will be conducted as follows:

– Odd-numbered weeks: Group 1 in person + Group 2 online
– Even-numbered week: Group 1 online + Group 2 in person
Teachers will therefore need to organize their classes accordingly—that is, in a hybrid format, with half the class attending in person and the other half participating remotely via Zoom.
As a reminder, Group 1 corresponds to the first half of the alphabetical list of students, and Group 2 corresponds to the second half. (You will receive the list for your class, specifying the groups, from your academic advisor shortly.)
In any case, it will be necessary to maintain the social distancing required by this new setup.

 

Tutorials

After-school programs will take place in the after-school program rooms, with no more than 50% of seats occupied.

Specific Provisions for PASS / PACES in Montpellier

PASS: Tutorials are held in person with a maximum of 50% of the classroom’s capacity, with every other seat left empty. Only students enrolled in the scheduled group will be allowed to enter the classroom. You must therefore strictly adhere to the group to which you have been assigned.

An ED session will be recorded and posted on MOODLE once all sessions for that ED have been completed (i.e., at the beginning of the following week).

PACES: Tutorials are held in person with a maximum of 50% of the classroom’s capacity, with every other seat left empty. Only students enrolled in the scheduled group will be allowed to enter the classroom. You must therefore strictly adhere to the group to which you have been assigned.

If the maximum capacity of the room is reached, any additional students will be denied entry but will be able to watch a recording of the session on Moodle.

Specific Provisions for PASS / PACES in Nîmes

PASS: Two lecture halls are available on the ADV campus and one lecture hall on the Flahault campus; students who cannot find seats will be able to access the courses on Moodle. Access to the lecture hall will be restricted once all seats are filled.

Lectures will be held in lecture halls whenever possible to allow as many students as possible to attend in person. You will be notified of the guidelines via email through your academic offices.

Specific Provisions for the First Cycle in Nîmes

The Open Courses are held in person for the entire group. The layout of the rooms ensures compliance with the 50% maximum capacity rule.
