North American University Registration!!!
Robert Grosseteste
It's official now. The North American University is starting registrations. You can haz registration! Along with five of the classes from the ended early last term (World History, Military, Game Mechanics, Journalism, Business & Economics) we have three new classes that have been created (Politics, Internet Relay Chat, and Newb Tutorial). Despite having to end the last term early we believe we have found a creative solution to the inactivity that caused the closing, which you can read about further down in the article.
NOTE: If you were a student of the last term and want to take classes this term please read the second to last section in this article.

Routine
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -
Though a few classes are unconventional, there is a typical routine to which our professors stick to.
The Routine: IRC is used for a lecture and typically a brief question and answer session, homework is typically assigned through either Moodle or just for copy/paste on IRC, and test/quizzes are run the NAU: Moodle (Moodle is a kind of forum mixed with google documents).

Term
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -
We have a standardized size of term now to help keep schedules, well, scheduled. A term is three weeks long. This term will begin on Monday 1st of March and will end on Saturday 20th of March. Remember when filling out the form to register to check class schedules and outlines to be sure you can make it to classes and know how much work is ahead of you.

Tuition
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -
There is a flat rate tuition, meaning one or seven classes would cost the same amount. The tuition fee is 20USD. However, as long as you finish and pass the class(es) that you had registered for you will be refunded 15USD at the end of the term.
NOTE: You will be messaged after registration about tuition.
PREVIOUS TERM STUDENTS: Since we had some problem last term and would like to make up for it, you will be refunded all 20USD upon completion and passing of the class(es) you registered for.

Signing Up
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -
NOTE: We are not running registration for the Newb Tutorial class, as it is a unique and almost autonomous class.
You can begin filling out this form to register on Monday the 22nd of February & registration will end on Saturday the 27th of February. To sign up for one or multiple classes please read the text linked on and fill out the empty boxes on this form.

Questions?

If you have any questions you can reach me by PM here. However, I would rather be asked questions here on IRC.
Lovely stuff,

Mr. H is teaching Journalism? A great replacement, and I know my White House media deputy will be an excellent instructor \o/
NAU lives again, rock on!
Interested in 5 classes but not sure if its worth spending $100
its not 20 for each its 20 total
"There is a flat rate tuition, meaning one or seven classes would cost the same amount."
TO answer your question, Xacerbate
This is so cool!!!!!!
Not to mention that you get your $$ back when you complete the course, bringing the total to 0! Great deal!
I'd buy that for a dollar!
North American?
Are there any Canadian teachers?
Must...sign...up
Agh! My schedule is epic failing 🙁
"Not to mention that you get your $$ back when you complete the course, bringing the total to 0! Great deal!" -- for the general population it would cost $5 in total. if you were a student of last term then yes, it would in the end cost nothing.
"North American? Are there any Canadian teachers?" -- No, but we are always in acceptance of them. Also, we don't shy away from hiring EDEN professors.
I would like to join, but who do I send my money towards
"I would like to join, but who do I send my money towards" -- has been taken care of
NAU is fantastic!
Robert is fantastic!
If it doesn't interfere with my eMilitary career, I will surely register, even if it did cost 20 dollar each.
Specially that the time is fabulous for me!
I don't think it should be just restricted to EDEN professors.
New American citizen Zoli and PM Dishmcds of the UK could teach Trolling 101.
Voted...
Considering the phishing threat, you should set up your own log-in system.
im down with it who do i send money to?
The NAU uses the eRep API system for login information. I wrote(and host) the code that matches the API to the Moodle system and can vouch for it. I can also provide a thorough explanation to anyone who wants it.
Interesting, I don't suppose Chinese citizens are allowed to enroll?
This is spam and phishing...not to mention complete bullshit.
