[eUP] Reopening of the eUniversity of ePhilippines. Start of a new term.

Day 2,063, 02:47 Published in Philippines Philippines by Vincenzo Roque


Introduction



Around 8 months ago, Day 1817, while I was the Minister of Education and Information, I established the eUniversity of ePhilippines (eUP), as part of the International eUniversity Project, an international network of educational networks in eRepublik, that has operations in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Bulgaria and Moldova. Its first batch of students was quite small, numbering 7, and unfortunately, as of now, no one has finished the course yet. I was disheartened by that and so, the first batch wasn't followed by another yet, and the eUP went quiet for a while, although not completely gone (We recently accommodated exchange students from the eUniversity in eRussia).

Nowadays, I noticed that the number of new active citizens is increasing, and so, as the Minister of Education under the new Raposas government, I am reopening eUP to accept students again!



Enrollment Procedure

To be qualified to enroll in this university, you need to do the following things:

1) First, you need to have eFilipino citizenship. If you don't have yet, try applying (but the government have to approve you first) or maybe there's also an eUniversity in your nation.

2) Upload an avatar (For easy identification between the different students)

3) Vote this article and write the vote number in the comments (To spread the word to other prospective students)

4) Be a member of an MU (This is for your own good.)

5) Fill up this enrollment form.



Education Process

After enrolling, the students would be separated to blocks (the number of blocks depends on the number of students) which they themselves would name. Each block would have an ingame message thread created by a teacher where the lessons and quizzes will be given and also where the students can ask questions. Failing a quiz will mean repeating that lesson with another block. After 8 lessons, the final exam will be given. Passing that makes you an Associate Graduate and will allow you to take the next course to be a Bachelor, then Master, then Doctor. You will also receive a personal academic badge and will be listed in an Alumni Book like this.



What's in it for you?

Well, other than the knowledge that you will gain from this, and the friends that you will gain, you will also receive rewards for passing the quizzes (if you are at most Level 27 at the time of enrollment). These will be food and weapons from different donors and the government, that will help you progress in this game.

If you want to donate, just send them here.



If you have some questions, whether related to this article, related to eUP, related to the eRepublik, or related to anything under the sun, I'd be happy to answer them. After all, what are Ministers of Education for? So don't be afraid to send me a message. I'll be expecting them! 😃
