I Have A Cultivation World-Chapter 445 - 320: Face_2

Chapter 445: Chapter 320: Face_2

Besides those senior professors from all major departments who have already reached Core Formation, the Daoist Academy hires annually, allowing them to choose the major and elective courses they want to teach. The rest of the Foundation Establishment teaching assistants even need to tap into their connections to get teaching assignments.

Zha Jianbai, for instance, was already assisting with teaching during his student days. After graduation, True Cultivator Zuo Gong could naturally recommend him to become a teacher for the lower grades.

For those like Qu Hongyu and Mi Yudao, who are of average talent and without the care of a Golden Core Cultivator, they can only bide their time, waiting for a vacancy in the courses they are good at and then step in to become a teacher.

If they teach well and receive unanimous praise in subsequent student surveys, they will receive more and more teaching tasks, and they might even become teachers of primary courses in the future.

These aspects such as survey questionnaires, course arrangements, etc., would require the assistance of the student council.

Of course, the student council certainly doesn’t have the authority to arrange teachers’ courses. That lies with the academic affairs office.

Hua Zijing told Chen Mobai that due to resource constraints, the Daoist Academy usually controls the amount of academic credit they spend on teachers each year to around three to four thousand. If a course has fewer registered students, several grades may be combined into one class to save credit and teaching resources.

The tasks of combining classes, and dealing with all sorts of trivial matters in communicating with students and teachers, also fall on their student council.

To enable a purer environment for teaching and learning, to allow teachers to focus on teaching and students to concentrate on learning, the Daoist Academy from a very early time delegated virtually everything other than core assignments such as arranging teachers to the student council.

Partly for this reason, after being involved for only a week, Chen Mobai as the student council president was already feeling the headache.

After all, communication and coordination are not tasks that can be completed by individual effort alone. It requires making call after call, even setting up face-to-face meetings, and not everyone’s schedule can necessarily be neatly arranged together.

“The academic affairs office needs to arrange a trial class for the elective course ‘History of Magical Instruments’ in the Refining Implement Department, and they want us to coordinate the time and course details,” Hua Zijing announced the latest issue that needed to be resolved.

She and Zhuang Jialan had already spent half a month discussing this issue, but had not yet made a decision.

Having no choice, Chen Mobai had to personally take action.

Since it was his first time handling such an issue, Hua Zijing didn’t pin much hope on him; she just wanted him to experience the difficulties they faced.

But that day, Chen Mobai left in the morning, and by the time he went to eat lunch, he phoned in to say that he had already resolved the issue.

The class would be held tomorrow.

“How did you manage to do it?”

Upon returning, Chen Mobai, who was in the office stroking a white cat, looked at Hua Zijing and Zhuang Jialan, who had rushed in with wide eyes in disbelief, and pointed at his own face.

“You have such influence?”

“Not exactly, while I do have a bit of reputation, the reason why the teacher of History of Magical Instruments, Mr. Liu, was willing to accommodate me, it was because I invited him to discuss the matter in Teacher Che’s office in Building One.”

Hearing this, Hua Zijing couldn’t help giving Chen Mobai, who had discreetly used his resources, a big thumbs up in admiration.

All course arrangements in the Dance Tool Dao Academy were decided by the academic affairs office, and the director of the academic affairs office was Chen Mobai’s teacher, Che Yucheng.

By inviting people for discussions in Che Yucheng’s office, no matter how difficult the issue, it would no longer be a problem.

“Both of you work hard. Teacher Che happens to be free tomorrow, and he wants to sit in on this trial class too.”

With sincere admiration, Hua Zijing took Zhuang Jialan to arrange for this.

On the academy side, since there are quite a few Foundation Establishment True Cultivators lingering around Crimson Mountain, but the number of primary and elective courses available each year is limited, while they need to cater to newcomers by giving them a chance to test the waters, they have the concept of trial classes. freewebnoveℓ.com

Such trial classes involve choosing a curriculum for the new teacher to teach, where students normally attend the class, but in the end, a row of professors and senior teachers from the Daoist Academy will sit in as observers to evaluate the teaching level of the new teacher.

After the trial class, the student council will conduct a questionnaire survey. If the professors and students are both satisfied, then the following year they will start arranging for him to become a lower-grade teacher for this elective course. If his teaching level improves subsequently, they will start scheduling him to teach higher grades.

Next, it would be the main course teacher.

However, the competition in this field is even more intense, as each teacher’s teaching level is already very high. The Daoist Academy can only distribute opportunities evenly: this year you, next year him, the year after it’s someone else, and so on…

Since cultivators’ lifespan extends to 240 years after reaching Foundation Establishment, and there is a new batch of graduates every year, it is unavoidable to be stuck in such an ‘involution’ situation.

But even under such circumstances, the higher-ups at the Dance Tool Dao Academy still offer opportunities for young Foundation Establishment True Cultivators to distinguish themselves.

If you receive unanimous praise in the trial class, you will be given a chance to teach an elective course for a year.

“With the realm of Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, it should be quite simple to meticulously prepare a class that can satisfy most people, right?”

On the day of the trial class, Chen Mobai, as a representative of the student council, was reporting to Che Yucheng, the director of teaching, and asked about some doubts in his mind.

“If they can be prepared for a class to make people satisfied, they should be able to prepare for every class. As long as they are willing to put forth effort, we at the Daoist Academy are willing to give opportunities.”

“And besides, while putting forth effort, they will get used to this rhythm of meticulously preparing for class. In fact, these new teachers might be more responsible and focused than those older teachers, at least for the first few years.”
