From Hogwarts to Strixhaven

On Saturday afternoon, Ivy, dressed as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Victor, went to the staff lounge on the first floor of the castle.

After passing a pair of gargoyles, Ivy pushed open the wooden door of the staff lounge. It was a long room with wooden panels on the walls and many mismatched black wooden chairs inside.

In addition, there was a fireplace and some armchairs that were not in good condition, but in the center of the room - Ivy guessed that it should be where the professors often sat, there was a carefully maintained coffee table and several armchairs with cushions with exquisite knitted patterns.

Ivy could recognize that the furniture in the best condition was the result of Transfiguration, which was probably the work of Vice Principal Professor McGonagall.

"Professor Victor." Professor McGonagall nodded at him, "Welcome to join our afternoon tea."

Also sitting there were Professor Sprout, Professor Flitwick, and Astronomy Professor Aurora Sinistra, who was yawning and about to get up.

Ivy heard Professor Sinistra say, "Thank you for the butter cookies, Pomona, but it's still too early for me. I don't usually get up so early. Excuse me, I have to go back to the Astronomy Tower to catch up on some sleep."

"You're welcome, Aurora. If you like, you might as well take some more!" Professor Sprout picked up a box of cookies and handed it to her with a smile. The latter returned a grateful smile and walked past Ivy. When the two passed each other, she nodded to Ivy.

"What's in your hand? Professor Victor?" That was Professor Flitwick's shrill voice. He helped Ivy move a chair. "Sit down quickly, we can't wait to get to know our new colleagues!"

Ivy sat in the surprisingly soft armchair and handed a stack of papers in his hand to Professor McGonagall. He also saw with his peripheral vision that Professor Sprout pushed the snacks towards him and poured him a cup of tea.

"This is..." Professor McGonagall pushed up the glasses that had slipped to the tip of her nose and looked at the paper Ivy handed over.

"Curriculum outline." Ivy took a sip of the black tea and said briefly, "The content of the first to fifth grade, the advanced class is below."

"Oh." Professor McGonagall cast a surprised look at him, "I was just about to tell you about this... Don't be so anxious to give it to me. I have to say, it's much better than I thought."

"Due to the nature of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course, Hogwarts students have not received a systematic education for a long time." Ivy gave some explanation. The syllabus was a knowledge tree diagram summarized by him using the two-shot Scholar's Touch to read through the lower and higher grade textbooks with the Wizard's Pen.

"My syllabus is divided into three parts: Dark Magic Creatures, Dark Curses, and Duels. I have also sorted out a reasonable context for students to study on their own." Seeing the eyes of the three deans, Ivy nodded, "I think self-study is necessary, especially when the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts is always the most dangerous position. They should master the ability to study on their own when there is no professor, at least to be able to cope with the Ministry of Magic exams."

The word "exam" undoubtedly touched the part of Ivy's soul that had received exam-oriented education and cramming learning. As the king of exams, Ivy naturally understood what kind of education method was easier to face exams.

"Very organized!" Professor Flitwick also came to Professor McGonagall, standing on tiptoe to give his own evaluation, "It's a very good review material!"

"That's right." Ivy admitted this, "As long as it is combined with appropriate tests and repeated memorization, I believe that it will not be a problem to deal with the written test of the Ministry of Magic. As for the practical part..."

Ivy hesitated for a moment, and then said in a tone without much hope: "I will try my best to help them strengthen it."

"That's great." Professor McGonagall said comfortingly, "Based on this syllabus, you can almost be regarded as the best Defense Against the Dark Arts professor that Hogwarts has met in recent years."

Ivy, who was recognized, did not become complacent, but put forward his own request: "There is another thing, I want to change the teaching method from each college to a group of two colleges, mixed teaching."

"Mixed teaching?" Professor McGonagall raised her eyebrows, which meant that the schedules of other professors had to change accordingly, otherwise it would be difficult to make time for students from two different colleges in the same grade to take classes together, "Like the potion class?"

"Yes, I will add some confrontational content for them." Ivy expressed his thoughts concisely.

"Are you talking about a duel?" Professor Flitwick was very excited. He was a duel champion when he was young.

"Almost, more likely a skirmish?" Ivy nodded in agreement, "I think only wizards use dark magic against each other. You can't learn how to survive from dark magic creatures."

"Okay, I agree. Although Dumbledore told me in advance that you might have some special ideas and asked me to try my best to meet your requirements, I didn't expect you to use it so soon." Professor McGonagall returned the syllabus to Ivy and agreed to his request. "Fortunately, you gave me a day to reschedule the class schedule, otherwise your plan would have to be postponed for at least a week. By the way, do you need a larger classroom?"

"It's okay now, I will try to make it bigger, at least the students of the two colleges with the largest number of people." Avi nodded, "I will start this teaching outline to start next Monday to next Monday to In the hands of each student, not only are their learning guidance materials, but also for review materials. "

"Oh! That's not better." Professor McGonagua got up from the armchair. "It seems that we don't have to worry about the students' dark magic defense certificate this year."

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

If it is not an astronomical lesson, Hogwarts has a total of 40 lessons (4th quarter, 4th in the afternoon, and five days a day) a week. For the professor of Black Magic Defense, there is no free time for these 40 lessons. In full, 8 lessons are taught every day.

Turning the lectures into a mixed lecture, Avi can free up the free time in 17 lessons. Only in this way can I have enough time to conduct magic research. Otherwise, even if you hold the magic stone, it will be a waste.

Not to mention that he had to take the time to torture Tom Ridel in the diary and cast it for his map secret room.
