Attn: Teachers & Townies - Recruiting for Summer Semester (Term 1) Classes

[ismyhairout.livejournal.com]

Hello teachers and townies!

During Summer Semester (yes, one of those posts already!), rather classes we offer workshops for students to take. Since the semester is broken up into two terms, workshops (which are essentially classes only with a less academic focus) run for 7 weeks. Both teachers and townies can run workshops. It involves the same thing as running a class: coming up with a concept, coming up with weekly activities for the workshop, posting the workshop on time every week and interacting in the post.

If you think you'd like to offer a workshop for one or both terms during Summer, please fill out the form below by commenting to this post. If you'd like to offer a workshop for Term 2 only, there's no need to sign up now. There will be an opportunity for that closer to Term 2. If you need to know dates, the academic calendar is available via fandomhigh's profile page.

All comments will be screened. Questions will be unscreened. Keep in mind that we're not really looking for academic classes over the Summer. Go for something fun and interactive. You can view previous workshops at the Wiki: 2006 Summer Term 1, 2006 Summer Term 2, 2007 Summer Term 1, 2007 Summer Term 2.

Aaaaaand here's the information we need if you're interested!

Character Name:
Workshop Name:
Workshop Synopsis (for public use):
Further Details on Workshop (whatever detail you'd like to include, such as weekly ideas, general concepts, a little more explanation, etc):
Preferred Day (please pick your top 2 choices Monday-Friday):
Anything Else:

If there are any problems, we'll be in contact to sort those out. Otherwise, there will be a post giving a general thumbs up to anyone we don't contact. Deadline for submissions is Friday, April 11, 2008.

Questions, comments, pie? You know the drill.

ETA: As always, this is only for current characters. The app session for new teachers and students will be next week. Apps for townies are always open.

I have a question!

How will new alumni be handled this summer?

[ismyhairout.livejournal.com]

There'll be another post about that, but if you have anything specific related to this and alumni that you need to know, we'll see what we can clear up. If it's what I think you might be asking, we're not asking for alumni to run workshops right now. That may be an option, but we really have to see how this and the app session goes first.
