I've thougt a little about which kind of sessions could fit well. They should be short, useful for users and contributors, and reusable as modules to courses apart from "standalone" classes.
yes, agreed.
Let me think aloud on examples of tools worth to learn, and fruitful at its very beginning, i think we can schedule if we get teachers for that.
The hard part is finding teachers. ;(

Sure, also the other fedora support channels: #fedora, fedoraforum and the users mailing list.

Of course this would demand a deep course by its own, and i'm pretty sure it would be a way to get more people confident to contribute to docs project guides. Meanwhile, for a single workshop:
** Write your first Article in Publican. *** Essential concepts and tags.
== Possible follow-ups ==
I wonder if after an IRC class could fit one or several gobby sessions to let people hack together with their first attempts.
Sure, but for the IRC session it might be good to have a example doc that you go through to create or steps they follow and get an example doc at the end.
Another possibility i think, could be link it to classes on git: ** Share your doc in a git repo and try a proofreading of your work. ** Don't forget add friends to play together and helping each other. ** Play seriously: clone a docs.fp.o guide's repo and test your skills.
Sure. Those are more 'free form' than a class tho. I think irc could be good for collaborating, but perhaps not a formal class.

So, which people is going to jump in to say:
"I'd be glad to share what i know in our Fedora Classrooms!"
:)
I might be able to manage something with git, but I am a pretty casual user, so not sure I would be the best fit there.
The other classes sound great to me, I would love to attend them!
