Bring along some pre made text which you would like to add into your wiki profile so you can concentrate on how the code works rather than OMG what will I write?!!

It is advantageous to be able to be able to use a web page whilst in Second Life, but don't worry if you can't all examples will be shown on the board. You don't need to be a coder to understand this, it's made to be easy so don't be scared!

'''Class Title:''' Keeping to the Tao in trying situations
 
'''Start Time:''' Saturday, January 19 <font color="red">9:00 (9:00 AM) SLT</font>
 
'''Length:''' 60 - 90 Minutes
 
'''Location:''' SL volunteer HI sandbox. Max 25 people to ensure we can address questions
 
'''Description:''' This class will focus on how to make the best of situations such as griefers, harrassment, innapropriate conduct etc. Many Mentors find themselves in situations where members, especially new ones, look to us for guidance, and also see how we deal with these trying situations.
 
This class will cover:
# Basic conflict resolution - how to deal peaceably with people. 
# How to use the client menu to disable particle effects, animations, and most effects of griefer attacks.
# The use of tools such as non-phys, and sit to use to avoid orbits, floats, cages, and other such attacks.
# How to properly file an Abuse Report.
 
But most of all we will focus on how to stay positive and present a professional attitude when dealing with such things.
 
'''Pre-Requisites:''' It is asked that all attendees, both new and old, take the time to refamiliarize themselves with the Tao, and come to class with a positive and open disposition :)

'''Class Title:''' Basic Scripting - Making A Notecard Giver
 
'''Start Time:''' Saturday, January 19 <font color="red">13:00 (1:00 pm) SLT</font>
 
'''Length:''' 60 Minutes
 
'''Location:''' SL volunteer HI sandbox.
 
'''Description:''' Scripting brings the dullest objects to life! This is the first in a series of 10 lessons I offer in world. 
 
This class is aimed at people who want to script but been too scared or put off by the jargon! Be scared no more!! (I've taught this to ppl that can't rez a box before).
 
The class involves a discussion of ways to create a script, and what the code inside the basic script does.  We then modify the code to make something useful (in this case a notecard giver). This class will have on board examples of script and what to do and as previously said it's for absolute beginners!
 
We first did this with the mentors [http://www.flickr.com/photos/56587713@N00/1398761978/ back in September] and had lots of fun so come join us :D
