Description
Eligible time includes accessible slots; available time requires both flags.
Adult-learning budgets allocate supplied time, observations, support hours and optional participation. Elapsed session time differs from assessor person-time or serial per-learner time. A completeness count or feasible time balance does not itself assess competence, accessibility or learning quality.
Eligible time includes accessible slots; available time requires both flags.
When to use this tool
Use Learner Available Slot Share when checking the stated adult-learning time, participation, resource or support-allocation convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter slotDurations, available, accessible. Follow any array-alignment requirements below. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read eligibleDuration, availableDuration, share, defined. Inspect defined before interpreting the associated values.
Require aligned nonnegative slot durations and available/accessible flags. Eligible time includes accessible slots; available time requires both flags. Return available/eligible or zero with defined=false for no accessible duration.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| slotDurations | Slot Durations | Required. Array of finite number; minimum 0; maximum items 256. |
| available | Available | Required. Array of boolean; maximum items 256. |
| accessible | Accessible | Required. Array of boolean; maximum items 256. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| eligibleDuration | Eligible Duration | Required. Finite number. |
| availableDuration | Available Duration | Required. Finite number. |
| share | Dimensionless share using the operation-specific denominator stated above; not a percentage number. | Required. Finite number. |
| defined | Whether the corresponding reporting denominator/value is defined; inspect before interpreting zero placeholders. | Required. Boolean. |

} Limitations and assumptions
- Accessibility and availability are caller assertions; overlapping time slots are not merged or scheduled.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Review actual learner needs, activity plans and verified records with the responsible educational team for substantive scheduling and assessment decisions.
