When your class is scheduled to begin, ClassBot will change the topic in both [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-classroom|#ubuntu-classroom]] and [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-classroom-chat|#ubuntu-classroom-chat]] to reflect your class. ClassBot will also give the instructor(s) voice in both channels, and will set [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-classroom|#ubuntu-classroom]] to moderated if your class is to be moderated. |

| To teach a class, you must first of all be a predominant, knowledgeable member of the community. You may then add your wiki name as an instructor to the class you would like to teach, as long as there are no more than 2 instructors teaching any one class at any one time. Also, there must be an instructor for both KDE and GNOME, and the table of topics must be updated following this example: /---------------------------------------------------------\ | Date | Time | Class topic | Instructors | |---------------------------------------------------------| | Sept 2nd | 18:00GMT | Multimedia | Alice (GNOME) | | Sept 3rd | 20:00EST | (Video,Sound) | Bob (KDE) | |---------------------------------------------------------| | Sept 16th | 19:00GMT | E-Mail and | John (CLI) | | Sept 17th | 12:00EST | Webbrowsing | Mark (KDE) | \---------------------------------------------------------/ 1.1.2 Submitting a Class Outline Each instructor (or group of instructors) must submit a rough plan of the material covered in their class to: <hybrid> or <ryanakca> on irc.freenode.org, or by e-mail, at the very latest, a week and a half before the class is held. This will then be reviewed to make sure that the class is being taught by someone knowledgeable, and posted onto the wiki as a preview of the upcomming course. The instructor(s) may also do latter themselves if they feel so inclined. When submitting a class outline, you must also specify the time at which you would like to teach, while keeping in mind that one class must be in a timeframe targeted at european nations, and the other, targeted at the americas. (Hence the GMT, and the EST in the example above). |
Please refer to the ClassBot help page to learn how to use ClassBot during your classroom session. |

| 1.1.3 Getting the channel ready | ==== Time ==== |
| Line 61: | Line 26: |
| The instructors should ask an operator of the channel #ubuntu-classroom to set a topic announcing the subject, the date, and the time of the upcomming class. The instructors should then be opped by a channel operator shortly before the class. A minute or two before the class begins, the instructor will set the channel to +m (moderated). |
Each class should last around an hour, up to a maximum of two hours, with a minimum of half an hour. The length of the class is determined by the amount of material covered by the instructors, by the amount of questions asked, etc. |
| Line 69: | Line 28: |
| 1.2 During the Class This section describes procedures for during a class, such as how to have questions asked effectivly, etc. 1.2.1 Questions |
=== After the Class === After your classroom session, ClassBot will set [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-classroom|#ubuntu-classroom]] and [[http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-classroom-chat|#ubuntu-classroom-chat]] back to their default settings. |
| Line 76: | Line 32: |
| Questions during the class will be given in +m mode. In other words, at the beginning of the class, the instructor will say something simmilar to this: "Please /msg <opname> with all questions. They will then +m you and you will be able to ask your question in this channel." Then, during the class, the operator will, when they find the time is right, voice the student. |

| 1.2.2 Time Each class should last around an hour, up to a maximum of two hours, with a minimum of half an hour. The length of the class is determined by the ammount of material covered by the instructors, by the ammount of questions asked, etc. |
Now that you have finished your class, are you interested in making it a permanent part of Ubuntu education? Help us make your session into a class for the [[Learning|Ubuntu Community Learning Project]].

Please refer to the ClassBot help page to learn how to use ClassBot during your classroom session.
Time
Each class should last around an hour, up to a maximum of two hours, with a minimum of half an hour. The length of the class is determined by the amount of material covered by the instructors, by the amount of questions asked, etc.
After the Class
