Below you will find a list of classes available in the School of Basic Learning. You may use any of these classrooms as the location to RP. When doing a CRP, make sure you put down the class info in the first post and "CRP" in the title. (Example: [CRP] Anatomy)
the self-learning system
The most surprising things about this “classroom” is that there are no teachers at all, but rather rows of computers. Students are expected to come in themselves and study, doing quizzes, tests, and lessons via electronic Tablets (a write-on screen with a stylus); students who prefer to work on paper can print out these materials for free…or they could not come at all. This is meant to be used as a sort of self-control exercise, as you are not required to attend classes on a daily basis.
To earn credit for a certain class, you must have a completed CRP for that class. A completed CRP must be at least 16 posts long. For each stage promotion after your student is registered, you will need at least 3 completed CRPs in different classrooms in order to be promoted. Which class you decide to RP in will also have an influence on your student's future path. See each class description for details.
Note: you may still RP in a certain classroom if you have already RPed there before. It will count as a PRP instead.

-Language Studies-
Required for: School of S&T, School of Magic Class Description Rather than learning the languages themselves, students will learn about the different languages and how they influenced one another. It is believed doing so will lead to quicker comprehension of foreign speech and, perhaps, a rudimentary method of communication. Classroom Description A square room decorated with flags of various countries and posters in different languages. Computers are assigned in rows along tables. Posted near the entrance are various extra credit projects based on the decorations in the room.

-Advanced Mathematics-
Required for: School of S&T Class Description Students here move beyond problems and charting and instead focus on a more practical approach to mathematics, with reviews of the techniques used to solve the problems in different links on the page. Students may also use this to connect to an international “chatroom” of learned mathematicians for interview requirements or help on their problems. Classroom Description Not a particularly interesting room. Tablet PCs are lined up against the wall. The ceiling is a piece of glass, meant to calm students during the strenuous tests. Also near the entrance are bonus worksheets students can take to further their learning.

-History of Planet Earth-
Required for: School of Magic Class Description Students take a look at the geological development of the earth and how certain conditions influenced flows of mana or human ingenuity. Particularly studied is the Middle Ages, when all races but the humans fell into darkness. It is necessary to understand as much about the potential allies as possible. Classroom Description Various pictures of the world are posted on the sandy-colored walls of this circular room. Students bring their own Tablets here and sit on a very comfy carpet so they can face the walls. When not being used for a classroom it is a favorite group-study room.
