== Holding your class == | |||
=== Discord streaming === | |||
To present your slides (or in-game view) we use the [[Discord|Eve University Discord]] channel #class-presentations. This requires the Discord role “Teachers”. A member of the Teaching Staff can assist with these permissions. | |||
Once you have the required permissions follow these steps (click to enlarge): | |||

=== The actual teaching === | |||
* Be early and start on time | |||
* Follow a clear structured agenda (do not jump all over the topic) | |||
* Take your time (and a drink of water). People tend to talk faster when they are excited/nervous, so slow yourself down…breathe. | |||
* Leave room for questions after ‘chapters’ of your class and at the end. | |||
* Be assertive. Do not shy away from banking certain questions for later or referring to additional classes/materials to not get derailed from your lesson plan. Make frequent references to the EVE University WIKI as needed and drop links in the [[Discord]] channel #class-questions. For Guest Lecturers a Teaching Officer can assist you in this. | |||
* Do not be afraid to NOT know something. Get back to students on questions that you don’t know or see if someone else in the class knows the right answer. Remember the goal is to learn, not to impress. | |||
== Evaluating your class == | |||
* Ask your students to fill out the [http://www.eveuni.org/classfeedback Class Feedback Form] at the end of the lesson. The form is also conveniently pinned on the [[Discord]] channel #class-questions. | |||
* Rate yourself: What went great? What will you improve upon next time? Does the material need tweaks or edits? | |||
