Class Scheduling Draft

---

Scheduling your class

• Try to schedule your 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. If you are expecting support for ships/modules or other manufactured items this is a minimum requirement and not optional.
• Check the UNI in-game calendar for available dates/times. Do not schedule a class at the same time as any other class. A Teaching Officer can check the calendar on behalf of guest lecturers from outside the University.
• The teaching department asks that we avoid overlap of classes. Classes shall be considered a two hour block of time, reserved on a ‘first come first serve’ basis (first class to post on the calendar, or be scheduled in the forum for OOC lecturers who cannot access the Uni calendar). Please do not schedule a class start time, where a class is already scheduled to start inside of two hours in either direction.
• Please do follow the scheduling formats below - classes not following these formats may not be eligible for teaching medals and titles (our Teaching Department may not see them to record the class occurring!)

Forum announcement

• Post an advert as a new topic in the Scheduled Classes Forum, using the standard format described below.
• Create a new post for each class session. Please do not re-use posts for multiple class sessions. New posts are more visible to the target audience - your students!!
• If you do lack access to this forum, please ask the Teaching Department to do this for you.

There is no practical component.

In-game calendar

Create a class announcement on the in-game EVE Uni calendar (provided you hold the Sophomore title; if not, ask a Teaching Officer).

Make sure to:

• include "[Class]" as a title prefix, followed by the name/topic of the class.
• set availability to "Alliance" (preferred); the default is "Private", which only you can see. Do not tick the box labelled Important.
• set a realistic duration, leaving time for questions. We generally prefer classes to last around 60 minutes, but 45–90 minutes is perfectly acceptable.
• ensure that your class is not colliding with other classes. Please do not schedule a class start time, where a class is already scheduled to start inside of two hours in either direction.
• include a short outline of the class and a forum link in the description.

Pings

Please ping "@everyone" in the "#ping-class" Discord channel shortly before you start, and you can ping with advance notice beforehand.

1. (optional) "@everyone x hour preparing for Intro to XYZ"
2. (mandatory) "@everyone Intro to XYZ starting now/in 5 minutes"

Feel free to expand on those pings by providing the forum link or additional context to the class, but keep it reasonably brief.

EVE University members can also put an announcement in the "Alliance" chat channel in-game.
