Scheduling a class

EVE University encourages those who wish to contribute to our student community to teach classes or organize educational events.

Permission

While most classes are taught by E-UNI Teachers, any member of EVE University with Sophomore status or higher is able to schedule a class.

If you are not an E-UNI Teacher or Guest Lecturer and you wish to conduct a class, please contact the Teaching Department Management for assistance before scheduling your class.

See the Guide to teaching classes for further information about planning your class. You will be expected to follow these guidelines, especially:

• Prepare an outline of class notes in advance - look into the UNI Syllabus Library for examples and content you might want to borrow.
• Anticipate and prepare for questions.
• Arrive early, start your class on time, and be respectful of your students' time.

Practical Classes

With prior arrangement with the UNI Teaching Manager, Guest Lecturers may lead UNI fleets as the fleet commander, if they have +5 or better standing to the UNI, or if they are willing to be set +5 or better for the duration of the class, AND these fleets do not violate any EVE University Rules. Note also that the UNI also has a special Guest Fleet Commander Program, if you simply want to lead a fleet operation or roam with UNIs.

Class Scheduling and Administration

To get the best turnout for your class:

• Try to schedule you class at least one week in advance, to give people a chance to hear about your class, and make time in their schedule to attend.
• Check the UNI calendar for available dates/times. Do NOT schedule a class at the same time of any other class or event.
• Post an advert as a new topic in the Scheduled Classes section on the forums, using the standard format described in the first part of the syllabus template. If you do not have access to this forum, please ask the Teaching Manager to do this for you. Certain syllabi may also have forum templates available.
• In the in-game calendar, post an Alliance event, using this procedure. It is best to not mark event as important, as the event will be marked as "classified" in the calendar feed and students will be unable to see anything about it. If you do not have access to the UNI in-game calendar, please ask the Teaching Manager to do this for you.
• Run your class!

After the class:

• After you have run your class, post an after-class report on the class using this form. You can also access this form with this short URL: http://tinyurl.com/UNIClassRpt

• After you've posted your after-class report, go back to the original forum advert post, and change the [CLASS] tag to [COMPLETED].

Cancellations and postponements:

• If you need to cancel a class, please do not delete your posts from the forum or the in-game calendar. Instead, please edit the tags on both to [CANCELLED]. If you need to postpone a class, please mark the original class as [CANCELLED] and create new posts for the new time on the forum and in-game calendar.

• If you reschedule or cancel a class on short notice (e.g. within 7 days), please notify one of the Teaching Managers so they can update the Classes.E-UNI mailing list.
