SUMMER 2017 WORKSHOP SIGN-UPS (SESSION THE SECOND)

[bigdamnprincipal]

Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone! It's time to sign up for your Second Session Summer 2017 Workshops! These sign-ups are for all students (but not graduated seniors, unless they're TAs.)!

Please read the following before you start signing up:

1) Teacher and Student Class Expectations! The all important guideline for what is expected of the players in Fandom High. Please give it a once-over even if you've seen it in some form or other before - consider it a good thing to click and read while I put up the OCD!

2) Japanese characters, please sign up in the Western style - given name, then family name - to make our alphabetical OCDing easier.

3) PC classes are those taught by a teacher character, the things you're signing up for here, as opposed to the NPC classes, which are discussed in their own thread towards the end of this post.

The Important Stuff About Signing Up For Classes

1) Each student character MUST sign up for at least 2 PC classes. Each player may only sign up for a MAXIMUM of 8 PC classes, spread among your student characters in any way you choose, as long as each has the minimum of 2. (Yes, this means that if you only have one student, you could sign them up for 8 classes. Just think carefully about whether you have the availability to handle that.)

2) If you're a TA for a class, you need to sign up for that class. It will count towards your minimum 2 / maximum 8 courses. Please note TA-ship in the sign-up, so the character won't be counted towards the class-maximum of 20 students. Teachers: please refrain from having your own character act as the TA as it defeats the purpose of having a back-up player to post for you!

3) If it's OOC for your character to take a class but you really want to take it anyway, just sign them up and we'll pretend it was an IG paperwork mishap.

4) If you sign up, you need to show up. Class attendance is how we keep track of your character's activity. If you repeatedly fail to at least sign in to your classes, we'll have to contact you about it, and you could be asked to leave the game.

5) Class descriptions are subject to change at the teacher's discretion.

6) To be fair to people in all time-zones, sign-ups are not first-come, first-serve. Excess numbers in classes will be whittled down with the handy-dandy Random Number Generator (RNG).

And now we get to what you really want to see: Summer Workshops! (Session 2)!!!!

FH class sign-ups will close at 11:59pm Eastern on Saturday July 1, 2017.

General FYI: Feel free to make changes to your class choices as long as you do it before the deadline. We use the final pings in each thread to make the class lists, not the email notifs. Questions or difficulties, please email us - fandomhighadmins (@) iambicnut.com - or drop a question in the Questions thread down below.

MON: Period 1: Syndulla & Jarrus: Getting to Know Your Own Backyard Two, Extraterrestrial Boogaloo

[bigdamnprincipal]

Our grand tour of the solar system continues, this time with Pluto!

We know you were waiting for Pluto.

Join Kanan and Hera for the second part of their expedition around the solar system, taking in comets, asteroids, notable moons, dwarf planets and more, now that we've gone and gotten those seven planets we share the system with out of the way.

MON: Period 2: Cunk: Sciencing Things Sciencily: Sciencing Harder

[bigdamnprincipal]

Have you ever wondered why we only have laps when we sit down? Are you befuddled by the leaves and how they managed to get up there? And sure, they say the sky is blue, but sometimes it's more sort of reddish or purple so you've got to wonder really what they're doing to it, like maybe an angel got shot up there, or the sky's done a bad dye job, like.

In this class, we will work on these problems and science them as if we are science men. For science. Now with extra sciencing!

MON: Period 3: Rogers & Stark: Understanding American Holidays

[bigdamnprincipal]

Ever wondered what Arbor Day was? Why the Fourth of July involves fireworks? Why little kids dress up like your teachers in exchange for candy in October? Then this class is for you, even if it's just to hear Tony rant about Hallmark holidays and their blatant money grabs.

TUESDAY

[bigdamnprincipal]

.

TUES: Period 1: Aphra: Archaeology: 2 Fun 2 Profit

[bigdamnprincipal]

Look it takes years to become a proper archaeologist, so we need a a least a few more weeks to cover all the really important stuff.

And we all had fun last time, right?

TUES: Period 2: Skywalker: Continue Trying Not to Die!

[bigdamnprincipal]

The class premise is the same, the places you visit are different!

And the challenges will be tougher because no one even got a little maimed last time and that's just disappointing.

WEDNESDAY

[bigdamnprincipal]

.

WED: Period 1: Lightwood: Fighting and Fabulousity

[bigdamnprincipal]

For years, Isabelle Lightwood (FH Class of 2015) has been a leader in the fields of both fighting the forces of darkness as well as looking fabulous while doing it. Join her on this seven-week workshop into the ins and outs of such important skills as picking the right weapon for the right mission, coordinating your thigh sheaths with the rest of your outfit, and the proper maintenance of both your favorite blades as well as your feather boas.

WED: Period 2: Wilson: The Healing Power of Crystals

[bigdamnprincipal]

Learn the mystic... mysteries of crystals. It's so mysterious and shit. Just sign up for the damn class, okay?

WED: Period 3: Karla: The Magic of Plants

[bigdamnprincipal]

Plants have more uses than just eating or decorating gardens. Plant can heal the ill or poison the healthy, provide dyes for our clothing, our skin, and our inks (you can make ink out of plants, too), and clothe and shelter us. What useful plants exist in your own backyard? Come and see!

THURSDAY

[bigdamnprincipal]

.

THUR: Period 1: Burnsides: Vehicle Proficiency (and Woodworking)

[bigdamnprincipal]

The proper handling and use of a variety of vehicles. With some time spent on woodworking should the time allow.

THUR: Period 2: Cara: Best Defence 2: The Defencening

[bigdamnprincipal]

None of are that stupid that you can't figure it out from the name. I show you how to hit things and avoid being hit, end result you hopefully pay enough attention you don't end up dead in the future.

FRIDAY

[bigdamnprincipal]

.

FRI: Period 2: Carlysle: Alien Conspiracy Theories

[bigdamnprincipal]

The real facts that the government doesn't want you to know about extraterrestrial life. You know. Probes and the like. Secret treaties. It's rabbit hole time, boys and girls.

FRI: Period 3: Lecter: International Cuisine

[bigdamnprincipal]

Let's experience the world via its food! Each week will be a different cuisine in its natural habitat, as we travel around and eat. Only class requirements are an ability to eat and a mind open to eating.

COMMUNITY CENTER

[bigdamnprincipal]

.

TUES AM: Community Center: Mayer: Morning Calisthenics

[bigdamnprincipal]

Nothing quite gets you ready to wake up and face the day like a nice round of morning exercise. No need for anything fancy, just stretches, maybe a little yoga or tai chi, and the occasional jog. Most of us think we should do a little more to stay in shape, and here's your chance.

NPC CLASSES

[bigdamnprincipal]

Nerds.

For those students in need of specific core content courses, NPC classes are handwavy, off-screen classes taken online at the student's own pace, and taught by our brilliant and not at all homicidal Danger Shop computer, HAL 9000. No sign-ups will be necessary, there is no minimum or maximum number of these classes your student can take, and they don't count towards or against the requirements for PC workshops.

We'll collect up your requests for class subjects, respond to anything that seems problematic, combine any duplicates, and make a list that will be posted along with the PC workshop rosters once sign-ups are over. After that, any student may refer to that list when talking about additional classes they're taking!

So, in this thread, please request NPC classes of a normal high school nature that you'd like to be available for your characters to take. (List as many as you'd like in the same comment, but please keep them to classes you actually want, not general suggestions.)

QUESTIONS?

[bigdamnprincipal]

As long as you're not asking how my trip packing is going. *throws clothes everywhere*

OOC

No world ending this summer!
