Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rules/Guidelines

The Rules in Short.
Must be Read before becoming a staff member, most important for Teachers.


1. You must Follow the Class Order Rotation... it well tell, when its your turn.(we will decide on this)

~Your class should start that day. You can post there
(try to post in your class but if you cant, please tell me and I’ll be a sub or whatever)

2. As a rule of thumb your classes should go as long as five to ten post by you the teacher.

~You may go longer if class and you want to

3.ONCE Posted and checked the openings make your classroom and Teacher. (PM me as well so I can close the opening~)

Or just make your staff person and start playing. (ditto on the pm though)

4.Set up your classroom, and make them look nice.

5. Please say your class is done.
So your students are not trap in your classroom and can't rp other places.




To add to this,
In more depth, Read before you ask questions.
AND Please Read before Becoming a Teacher.


The first post That you as the teacher do, will always consist in large.
Class Will Start Shortly
this original post can also consist of the teacher entering a class


After this post students may start to walk in post taking their seats and so on.


Now after a lenient period of time is given for students to enter the class. The teacher will then post once again in large font.
Class has Begun
They may also post something involving there teacher starting the class.


Alright this is the vital part. After class has begun. Any student arriving will be considered tardy. Which depending on the teacher could provide some consequences.


Now here is the second vital part. Once the teacher does their next post moving on with the class. I.E In Journalism class once He post starting his lecture which will usually always happen on the post after He starts class. No more students will be allowed into the class. So you cannot post entering the class at all. Unless you pm the person running the class and get their permission to come in late.


This rule was decided to help keep classes organized and try and keep a system going. So classes arent constantly getting more and more people even though a teacher is already 3/4 the way done. Dont worry though, if A Student miss a class they wont get in trouble. We arent doing an attendance thing. All classes are by choice not mandatory. So if A Student miss a class they just catch in the next one its alright.


Now the final part class ends either when the teacher posts in large font
Class is Over
They may also post something for their teacher ending the class.


Also note should a teacher want to do to classes back to back all you have to do is start back up on the top of this order posting class will be starting soon.



Now some other things to you should know. Classes should primarily only last a few days. Some may go on longer if the class is doing something big or important. But if your going on longer it might be a good idea to have breaks just like in long college classes. You know for your students to get up stretch their legs use the bathroom or whatever.


Also note should you have to get off for several days without posting in your class a mod will be allowed to jump in and end the class for you. This will help keep classes from running on forever.

Hopefully these rules are understandable and clear for everyone. Please post letting me know if you have any questions on this either in this thread on in the questions thread.(which will be up soon enough...)
