Classrooms Plugin
Creator: Pandette Bell
Contributors: Michael King, Elder Flamel, Haley King
The Classrooms plugin was designed based on previous plugins created on Knockturn to allow users to attend classes. The Original concept for previous plugin was that a real person would teach classes. However, with the release of Classrooms, we now have classes that automatically run allowing for users from any timezone to participate in classes.

Class Types
Section titled “Class Types”Automated Classes
Section titled “Automated Classes”Automated classes are used to progress to higher years. Students can attend these lessons with the goal of learning spells, potions, and various lore of the server, but also specifically to year up. These classes feature several lesson classes, and then at the end of the subject, your last lesson with be an exam.
Professor Classes
Section titled “Professor Classes”While professor classes do not add to yearing up they are a fun experience for roleplaying. One can learn spells or potions not taught in the automated lessons, and roleplay with your peers. It’s also a chance to get points that would not be otherwise obtainable in lessons which can make it easier for a user to achieve prefect status in later years.

- If you do not finish an automated lesson it will start back at the spot you left off at
Multiple different parts of a seat depends on what type of classroom one is in. In most classes, the only object of the seat is the seat you sit in. In potions classrooms you also have the different parts of potion making available to you.
