<h2>About Teaching at Splash</h2>

<p align="justify">Teaching at Splash is all about sharing your knowledge and excitement with eager students. The class topic can be anything you are passionate about (your major, your hobbies, etc.) and you have the freedom to design your own class.
<p>As a Splash teacher, you can:
<ul>
<li>pick the topic you want to teach and design your own curriculum</li>
<li>co-teach with your friends and colleagues</li>
<li>select the duration and size of your class</li>
<li>determine the grade levels of your class (between 7th and 12th)</li>
<li>request to have class supplies funded</li>
</ul>

<p align="justify">All registered teachers receive a free t-shirt and food during Splash. In addition, all teachers are invited to attend an appreciation dinner on the Sunday evening of Splash.

<h2>Who Can Teach at Splash</h2>
<p align="justify"><b>Current Stanford affiliates are eligible to teach. All first-time teachers are required to attend teacher training.</b> </p>

</p>

<p align="justify">Here are some past <a href="/learn/catalogs.html">course catalogs</a> for inspiration. Our greatest classes come from teachers sharing their passions--anything from 18th century literature to ultimate frisbee. In addition, here are subject areas that students have requested classes in:

<div class="classlist">
<div class="floatleft" style="50%">
Drawing</br>
 Music</br>
 Hands-on Chemistry</br>
 Political Science</br>
 Sewing and Knitting</br>
 Marine Biology</br>

<div class="floatright" style="width:50%">
 Magic and Illusions</br>

 Physics</br>
 Origami</br>
 Law</br>
 Psychology</br>
 Poetry in Modern Songs</br>
 Materials Engineering</br>
 Writing</br>
 and more...</br>
</div>
</div>
<p align="justify">Once you've come up with a great idea and registered the class, we can help you get prepared to teach it! First-time teachers are required to attend a teacher orientation session, but returning teachers may feel free to come to improve their teaching ability. </p>

<h2>Want to try something different? Lead a <a href="/teach/walkins.html">Walk-in Activity!</a></h2>

<p align="justify">Walk-in activities are fun and generally educational activities that students can join at any time during the class period. Walk-in activities are not traditional classes as students do not register for these classes. However, walk-in activities are a great experience for students who sometimes deal with cancelled classes or holes in their class schedules.

<h2>Time Commitment</h2>

<p align="justify">Teaching at Splash doesn't have to be a huge time commitment. In addition to your class, all we ask is a <strong>one-hour teacher training session for all first-time teachers</strong>.  More information about training sessions can be found <a href="/teach/teachingtips.html">here</a>. Returning teachers are more than welcome to attend teacher training as well if they choose to.

<h2>The Fine Print</h2>
<p align="justify">We aim to create a safe place where kids can feel inspired and excited about learning. As such, you can't exactly teach <I>anything</I> at Splash. Here are some examples of classes we do not allow:
<ul style="line-height:1.4;">
<li> Classes that include activities that pose any sort of physical or mental danger to our students.
<li> Classes that are illegal, or that explicitly promote illegal activities (e.g. How to Deal Drugs 101).
<li> Classes that promote only a single viewpoint on a sensitive topic (e.g. a pro- or anti-abortion class).
<li> Classes that exist to advertise an outside organization, service, or product.
<li> Classes that gather data for outside research purposes of any kind.
<li> Classes that promote religious proselytization or disrespect a person's religious beliefs.
<li> Classes that discriminate against students of a certain gender, race, or religion. (See <a href="http://studentaffairs.stanford.edu/registrar/policies/nondiscrimination" target="_blank">Stanford Nondiscrimination Policy</a>)
<li> In general, adults should be positive role models for minors and all members of the Stanford community are expected to follow the University’s <a href="https://adminguide.stanford.edu/" target="_blank">Code of Conduct</a>, <a href="https://web.stanford.edu/dept/Risk-Management/docs/deptinfo.shtml">Stanford Risk Management Guidelines</a>, and the Haas Center’s <a href="https://haas.stanford.edu/about/about-haas-center/principles-ethical-and-effective-service">Principles of Ethical and Effective Service</a>.
</ul>

<b>Please know that the Splash team and Stanford University reserve the right to reject or cancel any class.</b> In addition, Splash teachers must be Stanford affiliated and at least 18 years of age.
