 ====== Practicum ======
+**Practicum** is an [[activities:Arts & Sciences:|Arts & Sciences]] event, dedicated to classes and teaching.
 =====History=====
-Rumour has it that this started as a birthday celebration for Baroness Enid, but she says this is not true.
+According to Dame T'sivia bas Tamara of Amberview, Practicum began as one- or two-hour long classes in order to give the locals something to do in the depths of winter.
+Persistent rumours suggest that this event started as a birthday celebration for Baroness Enid Aurelia of the Tin Isles. These rumours persist despite the lady's own claims to the contrary.
-This is a day of classes on medieval topics, mostly short hands-on projects. The day is not in garb, more like a demo. The evening is a revel, sometimes with feast, but almost always with a dessert potluck. There is usually a small Baronial court.
+Over time, the event has become a day of many classes of various lengths on sundry topics. Past topics include lectures on Historical Figures; subjects in [[activities:martial:armoured_combat|Armoured Combat]]; subjects in [[activities:martial:rapier_combat|Fencing]]; histories of the SCA; recording your musical performance at home, subjects on EDI (Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion); and all manner of making. Often, because classes could be messy, the day does not require garb. After classes, garb is donned for court, feast (often potluck), and [[activities:arts_sciences:dance|dancing]].
 =====Location=====
-This event is typically held in [[branches:canton:Caldrithig]]
+Practicum is typically held in the Canton of [[branches:canton:Caldrithig]].
 =====Date=====
-Last weekend in Feburary
+Practicum occurs on the last weekend of February.
 =====Other=====
-In the future it is hoped to turn this event into a full weekend of classes, instead of a one day event.
+There have been discussions about extending this event to encompass a whole weekend.
