Deleware Florida Kansas Massachusetts Maine Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Montana Missouri Maryland Nebraska New York New Hampshire New Jersey Happy researching...and again, if you are not working toward becoming a teacher, please let me know

Many of my classmates are heading in a similar direction I am. We are from different states, and the school doesn't offer much in local support...so I thought I would try to compile a short list of teaching information by state. While this list is relavant to teaching degrees, I would love to compile lists for other degrees. If you are on a different course and would like more information

Ok, I know some of you are already "grown up" in the traditional sense. But you are either currently in college or considering it the near future. So what are you working on becoming? Who are you striving to become? And why? What do you have to offer that field? What unique talents or contributions can you offer?These are all important questions to ask yourself as you progress through your

First, I must apologize. I started this blog with great enthusiasm....thinking I could add stuff everyday and offer a wealth of information and resources to me fellow students of life. Unfortunately...this task was a whole lot greater than myself. So....I decided early on to make this an interactive blog, where fellow students and learners of life could ask questions, share stories, and build a

Hip Hip Hooray! Finally a class I can really get into. For the next 9 weeks I get to focus my academic studies on history, and I can't help but share the joy. When I finish the Constitution, I will be moving on to the education system...both of which impact our lives as students greatly, and have served their purposes but are in drastic need of reconstruction. So, if nothing else,these next weeks

Since my focus usually hovers on distance education and online learning, I thought I'd look for some good stuff out here on computer literacy and techno-know-how..Todd Pheifer has a piece on just that...here...For some wonderful reason, I can no longer cut and paste bits and pieces in here. As a writer, that pleases me, because I know things are being done to protect my work...but it makes it

This is a quick note of apology. Some evidence that newbies have a hard time keeping up :)! As I get more accustomed to the blogging world, I know I will get better at this. Until then...I hope you can hang in there with me.From this point on...no promises or expectations. I will do my best to keep the fresh voices coming...and you will still get the full months worth of air time.For the next 30

Well, once again, after giving it some time and allowing myself a clear mind, I got it.Those Truth Tables aren't really as hard as I was making them out to be.Can you believe that my error was an error in reading?.... Ya, go figure...hahaIn the text, it explained the order of operations, and listed out a hierarchy to follow. I assumed that since the items were listed in numerical order from 1 to

Here's a little more on taking care of yourself. As important as it is to get enough sleep, we as college students also need to keep ourselves active and healthy. Even distance learners, who aren't sitting in the classrooms for hours at a time, 3 or 4 days a week, still have to make it a point to get the activity we need to keep our bodies going strong.Here's Leigh's voice on the subject:Good

Anybody like Math? Any good at it?I know a few people that could use your help...and I am one!!Just proof that even those who seem to have all the answers, or the right questions to ask... even those who tend to get good grades, can pass tests with ease...the ones who can research any topic given them, who can meet writing deadlines... the tutors, the second-time-around students...the ones who

Did you know that staying awake till the wee hours of morning, cramming for that final, can actually hurt your grade more than help it? It is also true that depriving yourself of much needed sleep can cause a whole host of medical problems. If you take your college education seriously, PLEASE rest and take care of your body.If you don't believe me, read on....Sleep deprivation has all kinds of

So, earlier this week I shared an article from Leigh Goessl on using Wikipedia as a source for college research papers. I thought it would be good to look into some more valuable research advice. Another article by Leigh on research papers offers some tips I think we can all benefit from. Read on...A week or two into the semester you're sitting in your chair waiting for the day's lecture when

Ok, so April is half over and I'm just now getting to this. But you all know how busy a college mom can get...right, so I hope you forgive me. This month we will be looking into the mind of Leigh Goessl. No matter how hard I try I just can't seem to come up with the right words to use to introduce her. She has over 800 articles published at Helium.com, with over 100 of them focused on education.

I will confess that I am a bit of a perfectionist. My friends in high school may have used the terms, "brown noser," "teacher's pet," "geek," whatever. I don't see it that way. I just like to do the best I can and then try a little bit harder. I've always proscribed to the concept that "if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right." I've also always held onto the notion that my time is valuable,

College life! Isn't it grand? Instead of tiny-tees and make-up, I wear my pj's to school. Instead of lecture halls and classrooms, I sit at my computer propped up with pillows. The once cluttered closet is now my study hall, and instead of chatting it up in the halls I converse with my classmates in the cyber world.This isn't ordinary college life, it's online distance education. I made the
