| To teach a class, you must first of all be knowledgeable about the subject you wish to teach. If this is your first time teaching a class, please review the instructions on the [[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom/Submissions|submissions]] page and follow the requirements outlined there. After you have been approved, or if you have taught a class before, 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. The table of topics must be updated following this example: ||<:>'''Date'''||<:>'''Time'''||<:>'''Class Topic'''||<:>'''Instructor(s)'''|| ||Aug 5^th^ and 6^th^||18:00GMT||Introduction to Internet Relay Chat (IRC)||Bob (KDE) <> Alice (CLI)|| ||Aug 19^th^ and 20^th^||TBD||Introduction to Command Line Interface (Terminal)|| John (GNOME) <> Mark (KDE)|| |

| When a class is being led by an Ubuntu Member who has a member cloak on their IRC nick, you are able to make yourself an OP, and change the topic for your course, as well as set #ubuntu-classroom to moderated if you so desire. | When your class is scheduled to begin, ClassBot will change the topic in both [[irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu-classroom|#ubuntu-classroom]] and [[irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu-classroom-chat|#ubuntu-classroom-chat]] to reflect your class. ClassBot will also give the instructor(s) voice in both channels, and will set [[irc://irc.freenode.net/ubuntu-classroom|#ubuntu-classroom]] to moderated if your class is to be moderated. |

| Line 26: | Line 24: |
| To give yourself OPs, you would send the following message to ChanServ: {{{ /msg ChanServ op #ubuntu-classroom }}} After giving yourself OPs, you can then set the topic using the /topic command. An example is a topic that was used for [[UserDays|Ubuntu User Days]]: {{{ /topic Ubuntu Classroom || https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom || https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Packaging/Training || Current Session: Packaging Basics || Upcoming: TBD || Run 'date -u' in a terminal to find out the UTC time }}} If you want to have the channel moderated and have questions asked in #ubuntu-classroom-chat, then you will need to set the mode of the channel to +m. You can do this using one of the following command, depending on your IRC client. {{{ /mode +m }}} or {{{ /mode #ubuntu-classroom +m }}} If you do not want to have the channel moderated, then you can skip this last step. Please make sure that if you set the channel to moderated, that you are in #ubuntu-classroom-chat so you can see the questions asked by attendees. If you are an Ubuntu Member, but do not have a membership cloak, please follow the instructions located at [[IrcTeam/Cloaks]]. ==== Instructor is not an Ubuntu Member (or an Ubuntu Member without a cloak) ==== The instructor(s) should ask a member of the [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-classroom|Ubuntu Classroom Management Team]] to set a topic announcing the subject, the date, and the time of the upcoming class. The instructor(s) should then be given OP status by an [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-classroom|Ubuntu Classroom Management Team]] shortly before the class. A minute or two before the class begins, the instructor will set the channel to +m (moderated), unless the instructor has decided otherwise. == During the Class == This section describes procedures for during a class, such as how to ask questions effectively, etc. === Questions === ==== Moderated Classes ==== If the instructor has set up the classroom channel to be moderated (+m), questions during the class will be directed toward the moderator. In other words, at the beginning of the class, the instructor will say something similar to this: "Please ask questions in #ubuntu-classroom-chat using the format: QUESTION: your question here?" An example would be: QUESTION: How do I login to Ubuntu? ==== Unmoderated Classes ==== Some instructors choose not to moderate (+m) #ubuntu-classroom. In this situation, you would just ask your questions in #ubuntu-classroom unless the instructor has said otherwise. Once again, it would be a good idea to start your question with QUESTION: for easy recognition. === Time === |

The instructor(s) should also be deopped by an [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-classroom|Ubuntu Classroom Management Team]] shortly after the class. If #ubuntu-classroom was set to moderated (+m) the moderated mode should be removed. === Interested in taking your class farther? === Now that you have finished your class, are you interested in making it a permanent part of Ubuntu education?

As of 2014 the Ubuntu Classroom project is no longer active. |
This article describes the procedures required to teach or run a class or session in #ubuntu-classroom.
Teaching a Class in the Ubuntu Classroom
Getting your class put on the schedule
To teach a class, you must first of all be knowledgeable about the subject you wish to teach. If this is your first time teaching a class, please review the instructions on the submissions page and follow the requirements outlined there. After you have been approved, or if you have taught a class before, a Classroom Manager will add your class to the official Learning Events Calendar.
Before your class begins
When your class is scheduled to begin, ClassBot will change the topic in both #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat to reflect your class. ClassBot will also give the instructor(s) voice in both channels, and will set #ubuntu-classroom to moderated if your class is to be moderated.
During the Class
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
After your classroom session, ClassBot will set #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat back to their default settings.
Interested in taking your class farther?
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 Ubuntu Community Learning Project. Feel free to contact the UCLP team via their mailing list on the UCLP wiki page, or via IRC in #ubuntu-learning for more help.
