The main mission of Ubuntu-tn team is to spread Ubuntu use in Tunisia. The idea of The Classroom is to host regular tutorial sessions on the Freenode IRC server in the #ubuntu-tn-classroom channel. To achieve this mission, the Ubuntu LoCo team-tn tends to organize regular Classroom sessions. . These sessions be instructed by members and teams within Ubuntu-tn community.

Why Ubuntu-tn Classroom? Several teams within Ubuntu offer IRC sessions. Classroom seeks to be a centralized location for these sessions to be held and resources documented. Ubuntu-tn Classroom will hosts classes for the following:

IRC Channel

The Ubuntu-tn community is currently utilizing the Freenode servers for IRC. If you are going to join a session, the channel to use is #ubuntu-tn-classroom. If it is your first time using IRC, we ask that you simply review the IRC Guidelines. You may also be interested in this list of IRC HOWTO Pages. To connect to the IRC server, use the following information:

  • Server: irc.ubuntu.com

  • Port: 8001

Once connected to the server type /j #ubuntu-tn-classroom to join the classroom channel. #ubuntu-tn-classroom isn't the main support channels, so you can't expect to join it searching for answers, as most of the time it is a ghost towns. We recommend you continue using #ubuntu-tn, #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #edubuntu,or #xubuntu.

Information

The classes will start promptly at the designated times. The classroom will be open briefly in order to provide the members and students the opportunity for brief introductions and instructions. Once the class begins, the channel may become moderated (+m), meaning only instructors and administrators will have speaking privileges. This will insure there are no interruptions, making the class enjoyable for everyone attending. If you have a question, there will be a moderator that will take your questions via a message. You can message the moderator by typing /msg nickname question. Further instructions will be given at the beginning of each class.

See the Ubuntu Classroom Guidelines for more details.
