Online University of Maryland Online Vs U of Phoenix?
I'm looking for an entirely online BS program in MIS or CIS and I'm looking at UoP or UoM. Apparently University of Phoenix has been doing distance education longer and has a much more slick and streamlined program that is likely to go smoothly. U of Maryland is new to distance education and my have a clunky and experimental online education pilot program. Anyone have anything else to add? I will look at other schools, but I won't be interested in any programs like Regents Coll...

Developing a pre-school learning game
I'm an M.Sc. Interactive Multimedia student based in the U.K. My masters dissertation is on children's educational software and I have implemented a prototype learning game for preschool kids which is now online (requires Shockwave). I am looking for participants (pre-school age) to try it out so that I can get some feedback to incorporate into my dissertation. If you're interested or know anyone who is, please go to: http://freespace.virgin.net/sari.honkala/index.htm.I played many comput...

Online Graduate School in philosply
Is there such a thing as a online graduate program in philosophy? If so where is it offered? I have a full time job as an actuary so I cant go to school during the daytime. Unfortunately my local university does not offer night classes. Also, my undergraduate degrees are Physics and Math so I have no real training in philosophy. I have no interest in Philosphy as a career. It is strictly for "fun", just like my physics degree.This site might help: http://www.classesusa.com/featured...

UMUC Distance Education Masters ?
I'm looking into UMUC's online master of science degree in distance education. I was wondering if anyone new if the program is decent and worth the money and time that it will require. I don't want to enter into a program just to find out that it is poorly designed and implemented. I have heard mixed messages about UMUC in general, but nothing about this particular program.I don't know about UMUC's master's programs, but I can tell you about UMUC in general. I'm a sophomore and have ...

History Of Distance Education
I need information on history of distance education, including its paradigm shifts and effects of the emerged technologies... Can anyone help? I've been searching internet for a long time but still i did not get the info...What!? They shifted the paradigm? Why doesn't someone tell me these things? But seriously, you may need, or want, to develop your own model of the history of DE. Get all the little pieces of info, and put it together into what YOU see as the whys and hows a...

Taking The Ged
i'm going to be taking the GED test towards the end of this month. I'll probably be coming here to ask questions every once in a while. I have a few questions. I was reading a sentence today that someone posted in another group and I was confused. Here's the sentence: There (is, are) a lot of things about the game that scare me. Would the correct word to use in that sentence be "There is" or would it be correct with "There are"? The reason why i'm confused is because i'm assuming t...

Real Estate Distance Education, Real Estate Licensing

Any thought would be gladly appreciated.I gather from your post that you are interested in the Real Estate business. I am also in the Real Estate business, however, not as a traditional broker. My business involves Online Real Estate, specifically E-Technologies used to sell, buy, market and refinance homes. F...

Westlaw Law School, Macintosh and Law School
I am going to be a first year law student this fall and I want to know if other law students who use mac are able to access Westlaw and Lexis-Nexis through modem. Any information would be greatly appreciated.Accessing Lexis and Westlaw on a Mac via modem is relatively easy, once provided with the requisite software. The two companies should provide you with software, once you arrive at school. Be forewarned, though, your school may not allow 1ls to use Lexis or Westlaw. The rational...

Take The Ged Test For Free Online
My wife has to prepare for the GED. It is some years since she went last time to school. Now she would like to prepare for the test. I saw on the web some sites that offers online help and other things. Do you have any suggestion ? Which book do you recommend ? You think you can prepare alone by yourself? Or is it better to have someone to follow you?I think that depends too much in your wife. Study alone means self-discipline self-motivation and the will to do it, that is why it is ...

Any suggestions/comments/recommendations?I did my MBA from www.leics.ac.uk. They have MBA with various branches, IT, HR, E-Commerce., etc. Don't know about your location but I did mine through their local agent. 100% genuine and accredited...because I was there 2 years when I did my undergraduate, so it is not a ma...

Leadership training? for student ?
Leadership training? for student ? I am searching for an effective leadership training program/syllabus/system/rubric/whatever. Our students are bright, ambitious and energetic, but they don't all have the necessary skills to be leaders. This is a problem when a not-so-innately-skilled student is thrust into a leadership role, which happens. How do schools address the question of the quality of student leadership? Good student government (and other student roles) is vital to the morale and ...

Online Faculty/Teaching Positions
Does anyone know where to find Online Faculty/Teaching positions?This is not easy but by networking it can be done. Also find colleges offering online degree programs and search their page. They generally have a staff page or HRM page where they have a link to see what jobs are available and sometimes an online form to apply. Keep applying until you find something. Generally an MS is needed and PhD preferred. Good luck. Adjunct Advocate is a journal for adjunct faculty and has been doing m...

Physical Therapy Continuing Education
How can somebody as apparently ignorant as you accuse skeptics, *informed* and educated (in science) skeptics of being "science resisters?" Moreover, the article underscores that there are *huge* holes in evolutionary theory that need to be filled with facts.Here's a list of accredited universities in the USA where the program is offered. Note that *all* programs are offered at the clinical doctorate level, which is now the entry-level requirement to be a PT (DPT). Specialties, fello...

University Of Miami Law School, DL Law Schools - LLM possibilities (Long List)
This is a list of American Bar Association approved Law schools for LLM studies that MAY accept DL JD degrees. This list was compiled from the individual web sites and therefore may not be 100% accurate. Perhaps John Bear can verify? Anyway, no flames please. I thought this would be useful information to those looking at DL Law degrees and the *saratoga* LL.M. end run to be eligible for the bar in States other than California. I did this research because I am looking at DL...
