*QUESTION 5 SHOULD SAY OCTOBER NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER* a few days late, but - WELCOME TO SSC LEADER APPLICATIONS! i have forever been cursed to do camper sorting and leader apps for ssc SSC is a trianual camp, and these are the leader applications for it - a few days late xD Anyway, creatvity is /highly/ encouraged to give you better chances of leading but we do look at answer quality more! Please read the entire description as it may contain important information! <3 - - What is SSC? - - SSC or Scratch Science Camp is a triannual online science camp running right here on Scratch. It runs in March, July and November. You make a goal on how many minutes you would like to do on science during the month and try to reach that goal. There's also friendly competition between the cabins, too! - - FAQ - - >> When is My (Co) Leader Application due and when will leaders be announced? Your application is due on September 27th at 23:59 GMT. (No excuses) Leaders will be announced on September 30th (or earlier) and cos must be chosen by October 3rd. >> How will you (the hosts) choose (co) leaders? The leader of a cabin will be chosen by me and paige, and the leaders will choose two co-leaders, one or we may cut cos entirely, depending on numbers. >> What's the difference between a leader and a co-leader? A Co-Leader has less responsibility than a leader; but still has responsibility. They have much of the same responsibility a leader has except they don't make the studio and invite + notify campers. They are also managers in the main cabin. Leaders are like co-leaders but they create the cabin and get to be managers in the main cabin (they can also add main cabin points) If you're a camper, you're allowed to curate the main cabin. >> What are the cabins? As always, these are constantly in flux. The cabin options this session are: - Psychology (psych)* - Medicine* - Geology - Biology (Bio) - Chemistry (Chem) - Physics (Phys) - Botany* - Archaeology - Astronomy - Ecology (Eco) - Genetics - Mechanics *Please note if you are selected as leader, you will be unable to lead Psych, Medicine or Botany as those will be led by Paige, myself and Luna respectively. You will, however, be able to get co-leader offers for those cabins. Your cabin name is just a name, you can be in any cabin and do any type of science! >> Are there backup cabins? No, due to the amount of leaders and campers we get each session. >> When do Camper Sign-ups come out? October 1st! Ask Luna (@Moonlight_activist) to be notified! >> Why do you ask for my timezone? We like a variety of timezones so adding points and minutes is easier as we have people from around the world. It is a very small factor. >> How will you communicate with leaders and co-leaders? We will use a Scratch discussion forum, made by me, Luna or Paige. >> How will I know if you've seen my application? Paige, Luna and I will heart it, and give some feedback! The feedback is optional, but is highly encouraged to use to improve your application. >> May I change and improve my application for deadline? Yes! Of course, we always encourage improvement. >> What if I'm participating in SWC or another camp? It's fine! You can spend as much or as little time you want on SSC. It shouldn't take time away from SWC, or another camp. >> How will applications be judged? After the deadline, the hosts will look through the applications. You will be judged on your creativity, personality, answer quality, maturity and activity. We're also more likely to pick if you have participated in SSC, SAC or SWC before as you have a greater understanding of how camp works. If you've been inactive in previous sessions before, though - it doesn't matter! This session, there /will/ be co-leaders on hand to help! >> How will minutes be updated? We will use many different systems - for example project, forum and splitting up campers between the leaders. - - Credits - - Slides made on Canva by @Milkysplash Session hosted by @PaigeTurnerE, @Milkysplash, @Moonlight_Activitst and technically @Jojo_c0des Founded by @swimmingelephant1 gHosts (previous hosts): @Jojo_c0des, @a-lesbian, @swimmingelephant1, @umi-san Inspired by SWC and SAC Paige told me to copy the March leader apps. So I did.
