    If I could find a way to make a class about furries, fursuiting, furry art, and all that goes with it, into an academic quarter long class, you better believe I would try… if I wasn’t too nervous about public speaking.

      It’s sometimes easier to do speeches with a mask on.

      My easiest speech in high school was in a grim reaper costume that covered my face.

        While wearing my fursuit head, I will admit I’m a little less nervous, but I don’t think it’d be enough for me. I also doubt many colleges would be okay with me teaching with full head covering on.

    If i could get away with how my professor taught Maya i would teach Blender the same way and collect my paycheck.

    “Okay, class, here’s a 15 minute video on the user interface of Blender. Go home and make something.”

    probably any non majors science and math maybe through trig and initial calculus but I would need to get back in the swing. im not even sure if people take algebra at the collegiac level. Honestly most freshman level classes should be doable but again it would take some time to become conversant. likely A+ certification and a variety of intro to computer or technology type of things but I think those are likely more common in community colleges.

    Completly useless and unrelated tidbits of knowledge nobody asked for and wont be confirmed by sources.

    To make my life easier, it would be a Linux CLI 101 class for CS Masters students. Half of them don’t have the basic skills towdo their research.

    The thing I’d like to teach is a hybrid theory/practical on Free Culture, and how to use FOSS for all your computing needs.

    RTFM, a prerequisite for Critical Thinking

    It boggles my mind how many students can’t find answers in the one tool they have for any given subject. That’s Step 1 for problem solving just about everything: trust the literature and sort it the fuck out.
