=== Classroom Archive ===
=== Help wanted ===
This is the archive of the past Fedora Classroom sessions.
 
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 for various roles. Currently, these community members have volunteered:
 
* '''[[ Classroom Help Wanted#Lead_per_release_cycle|Lead for F26 release ]]: [[User:Skamath| Sachin S. Kamath]]'''
* '''[[ Classroom Help Wanted#Instructors|Instructors]]: You?'''

=== 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.
