Introduction
The Fedora Classroom is a project to teach interested users of Fedora how to better use, understand and manage their Distribution. Currently, All classes are held on IRC in the #fedora-classroom on irc.freenode.net. If you are not familiar with IRC, see the Fedora IRC HowTo .
If there is a session you would like to see, please suggest it and we'll do our best to accommodate the request.
Mailing list
For discussion and feedback or to sign up to teach a class, use the Classroom mailing list at:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/classroom
Help wanted
If you would like to help out the Fedora Classroom effort, we are currently looking for assistance in several areas. Please see the Classroom Help Wanted Page.
Classroom etiquette
The purpose of the classroom is to provide instruction about a specific topic. As such, it is beneficial for classroom sessions to adhere to a certain standard. Please try to adhere to the following during sessions:
- Keep in mind that classroom sessions may be logged
- Adhere to teacher instructions regarding questions and input
- Avoid unnecessary actions, nick changes and away messages
- Avoid off-topic conversation
The point is to help maintain a classroom environment that promotes learning while avoiding extraneous content.
Teaching a class
If you would like to teach a class on any Fedora related topic, please mail an introduction of yourself and outline of your proposed class to the classroom mailing list. Some things to keep in mind:
- We recommend sessions be approximately 90 minutes This allows for an hour long session and enough time for questions and answers.
- Make sure you know your subject and know where to point students who wish more detailed information.
- Note at the beginning of your class if you would like students to ask questions as you go, or would prefer them to wait until the end.
- Remember that typing is slower than talking in front of a class or speaking on a phone call, so keep in mind you will not cover as much on IRC.
(Note: Check out The World Clock Meeting Planner for time zone syncing.)
