| − | The '''Arcane University''' is a cross-province initiative of the [[Beyond Skyrim]] project.
| + | |
| | | | |
| − | It aims to provide teaching and support to all members and applicants to help them to acquire, expand or improve their skillset needed to contribute to the project.
| + | == Disciplines == |
| − | If a person wants to help out any of the partnered projects, but feels that they do not yet possess the required skill level, they can go to the Arcane University for tutorials, help with technical problems, and feedback. The tutorials of the Arcane University are made to support you to become a qualified developer or artist and join our community. About 20 teachers will help you personally if you are motivated to become a developer for our Skyrim mod projects! You may find the link to our Discord server in the [[#Links|Links section]] below.

| − | ==Structure and learning process==
| + | * [[Concept Art]] |
| − | {{AUDisciplines|clear=right}}The Arcane University is divided into '''disciplines''', or departments, each with its own group of specialized teachers who frequent their respective department. The channels are open, so group learning among students is also common. Administration of the AU is handled by a 3-person tribunal (the triumvirate) and a small group of designated moderators. A list of teachers and members of the Triumvirate can be found on the [[Staff]] page.
| + | * [[3D-Art]] |
| | + | * [[Animation]] |
| | + | * [[Music Composition]] |
| | + | * [[Sound Effects]] |
| | + | * [[Voice Acting]] |
| | + | * [[Writing]] |
| | + | * [[Level Design]] |
| | + | * [[Implementation]] |
| | + | * [[Project Management]] |
| | | | |
| − | Most of the learning within the Arcane University is self-guided. There are a number of tutorials and/or lesson plans available, depending on the discipline. Students can follow these and post their work for feedback, or ask questions at any time. Students may progress through special [[Arcane University:Arcane Roles|Arcane Roles]] based on their dedication to learning through AU coursework: Arcane Scribe, Arcane Mystic, Arcane Praxographicalist. These represent their skill and effort at learning their chosen discipline.
