The Center’s ISO an Instructor

 

Mon, Nov 10, 1997: The L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center’s ISO an Instructor

 

The L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center is looking for someone to lead a four part

series of “Intro to the Internet” classes for the month of February 1998

at its CyberCenter.

 

The four part series would be a general overview of what the Internet is

(e-mail, mailing lists, newsgroups, IRC, FTP, WWW, etc.), basic surfing

skills (menu options, keyboard commands, etc.), how to e-mail (CC, BCC,

attachments, etc.), how to do basic research (Yahoo!, etc.), and a topic

of interest that would fit within the series’ time restrictions.

 

The day and time are not set yet, though Tuesday nights from 7:30m to

8:30pm is being considered, so some flexibility exists, if you prefer

Saturday from 2:00pm to 3:30pm or whatever.

 

The series will take place at the CyberCenter located at 1625 N Schra-

der. The CyberCenter has six Internet Exploration stations, so at two

students per station, the class will hold a maximum of twelve people,

not including the instructor.

 

The Center expects to charge $8 per class, 20% of which would go to the

instructor, so if the class is full, the instructor would be paid just

under $20 per class.

 

All people interested in being an instructor should contact Kirk Feral

at (213) 769-7204. The L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center is an equal opportu-

nity employer. Women, people of color, and even heterosexuals, are

encouraged to apply.
