=== Classroom etiquette ===
The purpose of the classroom is to provide instruction on 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.
