Chapter 590: Regular Script Lesson
On Wednesday afternoon, Capital University's regular script elective class, which had been suspended for two weeks, resumed classes. Before that, the news that Liu Lan would serve as a substitute teacher had already spread throughout the school.
Liu Lan, who had no teaching experience and was forced to do the job, arrived in the classroom ten minutes early to prepare. As a result, as soon as she entered the classroom, more than a hundred eyes looked at her.
She thought she had walked into another classroom by mistake, so she immediately left to check the classroom door number, then looked at the time. After confirming that she had not walked into the wrong classroom or remembered the wrong time, she walked into the classroom again.
The students laughed good-naturedly. It wasn't that they disrespected the teacher, but she looked so confused and helpless that it was so adorable. They really couldn't regard her as a teacher.
Their smiles made Liu Lan nervous and embarrassed. She felt that being a teacher was more challenging than playing the piano and singing on the stage or live-streaming in front of the screen. Perhaps every new teacher feels this way when they teach for the first time.
Students at Capital University must take 12 credits of elective courses in their four years of college. Each elective course has a different class time and credit ratio. The Kaishu course is 3 credits, while most courses are only 2 or 1.5 credits. In theory, students will give priority to courses with more credits, so that they can take one or two fewer courses. However, more credits means that the course is more difficult.
The final exam for the regular script class requires students to write a calligraphy work in class.
Usually students will finish all public elective courses in their freshman and sophomore years, otherwise they will feel overwhelmed in their junior and senior years. There are too many professional courses in the junior year, and the senior year has to find a job or study abroad, so they may not show up at school. Liu Man has seen the student list. 90% of the students who choose the regular script class are freshmen and sophomores, half of them are men and half are women, and they come from a variety of majors.
As for Liu Lan herself, she has never taken a single elective course at Capital University. She did take two courses at the Conservatory of Music, but Capital University did not recognize these results.

Fortunately, Professor Su said that her special situation would be treated preferentially. Her substitute teaching could offset the credits of her elective courses. One class was worth two credits. By the time she finished substitute teaching for the regular script course, she would have completed all the credits for her elective courses.
In order to teach this course well, Liu Lan spent a lot of her spare time preparing courseware. She made three versions of the courseware and showed them to Professor Su for review. After several revisions based on the professor's suggestions, she finally finalized the current version.
In addition to the course materials in her hands, she also carried a large schoolbag on her back, which was filled with pens, ink, paper and inkstone. It is useless to just talk about calligraphy without practicing.
Liu Lan put the materials on the podium and put down her schoolbag. Her classmates' eyes were fixed on her every move, their eyes full of interest in her.
They arrived early on purpose for Liu Lan, because they were worried that they would not have a seat if they arrived late. Apparently they had foresight, and now there were no empty seats in the classroom, so the students who arrived later could only stand in the empty seats at the back and sides of the classroom. It is possible that some students who did not choose this class sneaked in just to see Liu Lan up close.
Dr. Li, who taught the regular script class before, was a serious man who looked very old. He was nearly 30 years old, but looked like he was 40. Although he had the title of doctor, his teaching style was very boring. He just read from the textbook, which made people drowsy. Especially as time went on, Dr. Li became more and more perfunctory in class, and he always complained that the class wasted his time preparing for his doctoral thesis.
Students chose the regular script class out of interest. It was so annoying to have such a teacher that many students skipped the class. Before Liu Lan, the attendance rate of this class was less than half.
What's even funnier is that Dr. Li stopped coming to class and simply stopped teaching?! The end of the semester was approaching, and just when everyone thought that they could just slack off on this elective course, they suddenly learned that Liu Lan would be the substitute teacher.
For most Capital University students, their knowledge of Liu Lan is similar to that of ordinary netizens, that is, information from the Internet, and at most, a campus rumor. The school is so large and there are so many majors, so the chances of them meeting Liu Lan are slim, not to mention that Liu Lan does not stay in school except during class time.
So how could they not seize this rare opportunity to see celebrities? Especially for boys, they could attend classes and see beautiful women, the best of both worlds.
