This is a great idea!

A school wold be a great way we could learn from each other!

I'd like to make bunch of lessons to help beginners focus on learning
how to:
Do basic building and how to be more by efficient using the editor
Do basic of scripting to get the core principles and then make some
fun things with scripts

How about if a kiosk full of resources be available at the welcome
center?
I think these resources should be available only to the group to
attract membership.
This way visitors could see the tantalizing names of resources and
lessons but not the info.

Wow! wohoo!

We have talke about training each otehr for months. Lets, see the
plan is several steps, and no reason we can't do this fast.

Management:
Put a note on the agenda page and assign prioirity. Ted?
Allot a classroom on the sim: (space, location, prims)
(confirm Owners for a public sandbox)
Appoint a principal. any volunteer? Someone with SL a/o RL teaching
experience?

Appoint an chief architect. any volunteer?

Principal:
Recruit and basic train teachers:
Teachers: choose a class you can teach and make it be. (SL Mentors
group survey last week published that the three most wanted class
topics are now: Scripting, sculpties and flexy prims.)
Schuedule & promote classes: announce in SL education list and BoV
group and SLEdu and any other ways we can.
Deliver classes

Architect:
Build some things in great style:
classroom podium, student spaces, info kiosk. quick path from rez to
class
(the old Mystica classroom did these best I think.)

I am available to help in anything that has to do with teaching,
however when it comes to building....well, I can rez a box and texture
a few things....so could likely teach the very beginners with grace
and a sense of humour.

I teach other things though and they aren't prioritiy now. But I am
raising my hand to help here where I can use me.

Dear Sheri,

You are great! Big smiles.... I think there is more to schooling than
just building though. For instance you said to me the day before you
wedding that because of the other sims involvment you have learned how
to lower lag with your AV... that alone is a class in itself.... we
need more than building classes. Information classes are just as
important. I would be happy to have you as a teacher and know you
would do a great job at it. I am adding you to my list of people that
would like to be part if that is ok with you.

Love you lots
Arian
