Childboards? Why are they needed? Just start a thread.
Title: Re: Academy Rollcall
Post by: Osamafune on July 22, 2007, 09:56:38 PM
I think it would be easier with child boards, but I guess that would work...


Btw, are we doing my idea of giving out degrees or no?
Title: Re: Academy Rollcall
Post by: Solnath on July 23, 2007, 06:06:43 AM
That'd require exams, don't you think?

Need some clarification for informational purposes.  Anyone can teach here, correct?  No requirements?  Just sign up here in this thread and then go off and start their topic?  Or do they actually need to sign up and then wait for permission?
Title: Re: Academy Rollcall
Post by: Solnath on July 24, 2007, 11:08:37 AM
Signing up is the equivalent of crying havoc. Let'em slip.

I'd like to spout off on theories of international relations.  Do I just make a thread, or?
Title: Re: Academy Rollcall
Post by: Solnath on August 25, 2007, 04:54:27 AM
Sure, just title it "Lecture:" followed by the topic.

If the number of students would pay my checks, I'd be willing to do a 'German for beginners' and an 'Introduction on the Contemporary History of Modern Austria and its connections with the former member-states of the Hapsburg Monarchy'.

Can I pay you in cookies?  I've been wanting to learn German, personally.
Title: Re: Academy Rollcall

You got yourself a deal.  ;) And from now on it's not cookies, but 'Kekse'.  :D

I'm interested in getting involved.  Languages are a good idea, given the range of localities we have in here. 

I'll wait to see what I can/can't contribute.  Time is a massive problem at the moment and it seems very easy to get immersed in the "game".  I am trying not to spend too much time doing non-study/work related stuff on the net cos otherwise i might never get anything done ever again...  :fight:

I am actually doing a term paper on Taoism for history class. I'm still doing the research portion of it, but by mid-October it should be written up.

Will be doing a series of lectures on: 'Dealing with Teenagers with mental problems an educational environment with a special interest in visual impairment.'

Starting soon, and i work for a charity dealing with blind/visually impaired teenagers at college and school level.
Is there any interest from anyone?

All lectures are read thoroughly by at least one person, author not included. Unless I'm that person, in which case author included.  :'(

I would like to hold a course on Astronomy and Astrophysics. Start it simple and build it up.
Would also include current discovery's.
But it will take a while to get the first paper done.
I can't find much writing time before mid-December.
