Scholarship is used to more effectively teach and learn from being taught. It is also used to determine how much information you can obtain from the [[Recall command]]. It may also have some other benefits especially for [[Moon Mage]]s and [[Bard]]s.

===Factors===

How well one teaches one's students and your students learn depends on several factors. Scholarship, [[Charisma]], other mental [[Attributes]], skillset of the subject being taught, and race all play their various parts. Some skills have special factors on top of these. Guilds with guild-only skills can only teach them to members of that guild.

==Training Scholarship==
Some ways of training Scholarship include:
*Listening to a class on something other than Scholarship. Listening to a class on Scholarship is now wasteful due to the teaching changes.<ref>[[Post:Teaching 2.0 - 7/5/2008 - 1:01:04]]</ref>
* Teaching a class of any subject.
* Reading books at a [[:Category:Libraries|library]].
* Reading guild renown lists.
* Studying [[compendium]]s/[[anatomy charts]]. (Also teaches [[Empathy skill]] to Empaths and [[First Aid skill]] to all guilds)
* Studying spellbooks.
* Studying patterns for [[embroidery]].
* Studying instructions for [[origami]].
* Reading primers for [[Prayer Beads|bead carving]].
* Reading enchantment scolls (Moon Mage only).
* Studying trading ledgers (Trader only).
* Using the Recall command.
* Studying art.
* Reading [[crafting]] books.

*teaching a class of any subject

Scholarship is used to more effectively teach and learn from being taught. It is also used to determine how much information you can obtain from the Recall command. It may also have some other benefits especially for Moon Mages and Bards.

The following guilds have circle requirements in scholarship:
