Suggestions to Improve Free School

[Skip]

Please post any suggestions you have to improve the Free School. I will be getting back to this area again in the next month or so to make improvements.

I'm already planning an upgrade to the Instructor signup, to make it easier to know what is expected of them and automate the process a bit more.

I'd like to do a big upgrade to the Free School so that it's more attractive and the classes fall into neat subject categories.

So add whatever else you think would improve the Free School experience. :)

how about a class in meditation?
there's all these great classes on Buddhism, vegetarianism, healthier living, etc.
meditation is pretty healthy for the soul:)

A class on general religious studies would be interesting. I would volunteer to be the instructor but I am in no way qualified...so if anyone wants to step up that would be great. Otherwise have a great day.

how about if a teacher could post a little on what the class will be about, in general, even though the class hasn't started (especially if the teacher didn't suggest it)?
e.g. Class: Music
the teacher could say whether they want to focus on theory or certain genres or instruments, etc

All those wishing to teach must post up a syllabus along with the basic description. They can alter the originally suggested class description too, if they decide it wasn't quite right for them. :)

Just one suggestion, maybe have an area set aside in forums like the Writing, etc. in which students could share there finished work. Not for evaluation or anything, rather so other students could possibly take some other ideas from students that interpreted the lessons differently then they did, or something along those lines.
