<font face="Arial">Hi guys, <br>
<br>
A few basic bits and pieces I made for 4 day courses that may be
useful/transferable to others.<br>
<br>
Of most interest to others is possibly the keyboard reference
sheet and the links sheet. <br>
The preferences page is quite subjective, so I go through changing
some of the settings and let students choose what they want. <br>
100% of students I have ever taught prefer the left mouse button
over the right mouse button, although i'd probably update this
sheet to change some of the other options selected.<br>
<br>

<br>
These sheets are free to be used. Let me know if anyone wants any
in a similar style or with changes etc...<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Doug Ollivier<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi everyone,
I know this is a formal email list, but it would be really great to
have someone (or a small board) with time and energy to coordinate
things here.
For me, the biggest challenge would be this:
** Collect & publish training material, aimed at teachers
I mean training material that's formatted in a way you can schedule
classes, or programs for students lasting a semester. It can have
"teacher companion" material (so you can prepare well) and material to
hand out to students (exercises and tests).
I've been discussing this with people several times already... and a
lot of people really like it, but it doesn't get a momentum yet. Main
challenge therefore is how to get something like this organized...
A related topic would be this:
** Develop standardized tests for certification
As discussed extensively on the Blender Conference; we can invest time
to provide standardized tests for trainers and schools to use for
students, and allow them to certify students via these tests. These
certifications can have a cool status but always be connected by who
issued it; like:
Blender (R) Certified Specialist: Character Modeler, issued by xxx,
city, country.
Also for this system I'd like to see people to investigate and
coordinate it.
Laters,
-Ton-
