Roomshare & Crosslisted Course Detail Report
The Roomshare & Crosslisted Course Detail report shows details about credit for courses that are roomshared or crosslisted. It also allows you to see, for any roomshare or crosslisted course where the credit is split, all of the instructors and departments getting credit for a course, and how much credit each is getting. This report is organized by the “Roomshare Bundle ID”, a unique identifier that groups all courses happening in the same time and space under the same identifier. Courses that are not roomshared still get a unique Roomshare Bundle ID.
When the Course Detail by Credited Dept report shows that your department was credited with part of the teaching activity for a crosslisted course, you can go to this report to examine the rest of the bundle to learn what other departments also received credit.
Filters
- You can select one fall or spring semester (summer isn’t available in this report) at a time and filter the result set to return the crosslisted or roomshared data for the bundle listings that you've identified.
- You can also filter the result set by course level, offering type, instructional format, as well as whether the bundle is officially crosslisted or identified as roomshared. You can also uncheck both of these and see the split credit for all courses in the selected unit.

Report
This report features course attributes, including flags to identify if a course is cross-listed and/or roomshared. The result set also features instructor attributes, including the instructor name, the credited department, and the instructor hours/wk.
Crosslisted Course
Cross-listed courses are offered jointly by more than one department. These courses must have identical titles, descriptions, instructional formats, grading options, units, final exam statuses, and University and campus requirement statuses. Prerequisites and restrictions may differ. If a course is officially cross-listed, it's considered a single course where all parts must be offered. The Academic Senate defines officially crosslisted courses.The Roomshare & Crosslisted Course report has details about crosslisted and roomshared courses.
Roomshare
Roomshared classes occur at the same place, day, and time as another class section in a given semester. Cal Answers checks all class sections in a given semester to identify roomshared classes. Cal Answers does not consider studios, clinics, or labs to be roomshared unless they have been designated as cross-listed by the academic senate. Roomshared classes are sometimes referred to as "unofficial cross-listed courses".
-
A course can be roomshared but not crosslisted. The course number for a crosslisted course usually begins with C.
- Instructors with multiple appointments may have more than one credited department for a given course. For more information, see Rules for Assignment of Teaching Credit.
