Assignments:
This is a ONE TERM class, following the general format of monthly lessons with corresponding assignments and extra-credit opportunities.
There are no exams or projects, but be forewarned, this will be no walk in the galactic park. You are a Time Lord, after all. All assignments have been tailored to make you as prepared as possible to take your place in the annals of Doctor history, and anything worth leaving a legacy cannot be too easy, surely. With that in mind, you will be put through a series of practical trials to test both your knowledge and skill in a variety of ways. One should be prepared for anything.
In order to pass the class YOU MUST earn a total of AT LEAST 150 points out of 300 allotted to the class for the term. Anything less will be considered not acceptable and you will be summarily subject to further regeneration (fail).
Assignments should be sent to mailto:[email protected] . When responding to questions on the forum, please sign up to the forum using your HOL name. In your response, please state your HOL name/ID. If you have any questions, please address them to myself via the Time Vortex button as instructed on the main page. Alternately, you may contact Lavinia via HOL message (la1060) or use the above email address. The choice is yours.
Late Assignments:
I understand that even newly regenerated Doctors may find themselves in a bit of a bind from time to time and be unable to complete their assignments by the expected date. I am not completely heartless, despite my lack of a natural heart, and I would ask you to please disregard any rumors to the contrary. I am fully sentient being, capable of rational emotion and empathy; I assure you. With the exception of the very last assignment, I am more than willing to give extensions or work with you should you have special circumstances where you need to turn in your work at varying times throughout the year. All I ask in return is that if you need an extension, please let myself or Lavinia know a few days in advance, if possible, so we will not launch a rescue mission assuming that the Daleks have found you.
Quills and Grading:
One quill will be awarded at the end of the term for the entire course. Quills will be given to those students who have successfully completed the requisite 150 points worth of assignments.
Awards will be handed out at the completion of the term to those individuals who exceed expectations in their studies:
Time Lord: Awarded to those persons who manage to receive the maximum number of points (300) for the class. This will take a person with extreme Gallifreyan tenacity!
Time Traveler: Awarded to those persons who manage to score between 200-299 points for the class. Your navigational skills might still land you on the wrong planet if you aren't careful, but you are more than capable of piloting the TARDIS and you should be commended for all of your hard work.
Omega Award: Awarded to those persons who show superior aptitude in the creative/research area.
Face of Boe Award: Awarded to the person who garners the most points for their respective House.
Sonic Screwdriver: Awarded to all students who earn a quill for this class. Every Doctor needs a sonic screwdriver, after all!
Of Utmost Importance:
Please remember that Doctor Who is an HOL class, and thus HOL rules apply. Not doing so could possibly cause a rip in the fabric of time and space, and I do NOT even want to contemplate what that could mean. . Remember, too, that even the TARDIS and its various components (namely myself and NINA) malfunction from time to time, and need repairs. So while I will strive to have everything running in a smooth and orderly fashion, if I am a few days late getting things graded or posted, rest assured, I am not broken, it is merely a temporary glitch known as "real life' that should be resolved shortly. Thank you.
