The students would judge the instructor solely by their skill when they taught the class.
This method was fairer than the public lecture and relied a little bit on the special instructor's popularity, but because the identity of the special instructor would be unknown, the class was open for free.
Many college students who didn't want to pay some Academy credits for unknown instructors who were undergoing an assessment would usually choose this blind seminar.
Similarly, the candidates who didn't have high popularity outside of the academy would also choose this second assessment method because they could entirely rely on their ability to teach students.
It was hard to say whether the first method was more popular or the second method was more popular, but generally, those who attended the public lecture were at least students with a considerable amount of academy credits.
After all, who would attend a class with a certain price just because of the instructor's well-known name and this instructor was still going through an assessment?
There was much uncertainty in this lecture assessment, so students who could generously pay for the public lecture should all be elite and rich.
On the other hand, most of the college students who chose the blind seminar were either tight on budget, stingy, poor, or just wanted to have fun and guess the mysterious instructor.
Some well-known experts out there with a strange temperament liked to apply to be an instructor at the academy using the blind seminar as their assessment method.
Generally, students who attended these experts' blind seminars would have a higher chance of being noticed and appreciated by the instructor.
This is also why, in recent decades, many rich students, the elites, and those like the Eltonians also attended the blind seminar one after another.
Elliana felt that with Ainsley's temperament, no matter how popular she was, she would want to be more low-key and choose the blind seminar method.
This method would not announce the identity of the lecturer until the class ended.
"This assessment has the judges and the other special instructors to give the score, but the attending students will also give a score."
The tricky one was indeed the students and not the other special instructors because if the students were malicious, they could deliberately give a low score to this 'candidate' who relied on them to pass the assessment.
Many students even threatened these candidates with benefits way before the class started if the candidate wanted to be given a good score.
The special instructor's ability to deal with those little tricks would be revealed through the dark side of the Elton Academy, and the Academy also turned a blind eye on down injustices.
The academy didn't intend to make their students and even their instructors as flowers in the greenhouse.
pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ Dealing with malicious people and troubles was common in the cruel world out there, so some small injustices would still escape from the academy's rules.
To be honest, Ainsley did feel like choosing the blind seminar, but the public lecture would definitely be more advantageous for her.
Of course, there could be a group of haters among the college students who might tamper with her assessment or something if she chose the public lecture.
In the end...anonymity was the best choice because after the assessment ended, both the online students and the offline ones would be notified about the candidate's true identity.
And Ainsley also wanted to rely on her true teaching skill rather than relying on her popularity to pass the assessment.
"Okay, I see, Eli." Ainsley nodded and just like what Elliana expected, Ainsley planned to choose the blind seminar method if she could pass the first test.
Elliana nodded at Ainsley and continued to tell Ainsley some common rules and preparation for the first test that she got from the informants.
"The first test is a three-day survival test against fellow special instructor candidates and against wild monsters or beasts on the floating islands."
The candidates were not allowed to bring any weapons, potions or any survival items and they were not even allowed to bring their spatial storage!
"I heard from the informants that this test is not open to the students unlike the entrance exam for new students and ordinary instructors, but Eltonians can watch the live stream because of their privilege."
The Eltonians had so many privileges and they could even watch the survival test for the special instructor's candidates.
It was said that ordinary instructors who wanted to upgrade actually had some advantages in both tests because some college students were once their students.
In the public lecture, these former students would sometimes help their former teachers, and even in the blind seminar, if the instructor acted behind the scene to notify their former students....
It was also possible.
Many college students had studied in the academy ever since they were young, so they actually spent more time with these ordinary instructors than the special instructors in college.
Back to the first test about the three-day wilderness survival....the Eltonians could watch the live stream, and they could even play some roles there.
"Since the special instructor's candidates are going to teach the Eltonians too in the end, the Eltonians have the right to assess the candidates in the first test."
So, the first test not only has the judges give scores but also the Eltonians.
"There will be tasks during the three-day wilderness survival, and the Eltonians even have some privileges to assign tasks as long as they spend money."
Of course, the money would be for the academy who held the assessment and the contestants would only get a fraction of the money.
