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...

Creation of web-based learning sites
my project is to set up a web-based learning site for students. This should include: - some technical graphs which should be annimated (like if a student changes some figures, the graph shall move) - other annimations - texts with hyperlinks - progress tracking but they should still be able to navigate on their own - the possibility for a chat forum (or some sort of exchange - no real time required) - all this should be made available to students on the web without having them to download ...

online nursing education?
I'll be graduating shortly with a BS degree in electrical and computer engineering. I'm trying to get into nursing. However, I noticed that the University of Phoenix is offering a BSN online. I'm often wary of online education, as some people don't fully acknowledge. Then again, Phoenix is a major, accredited school, unlike some of those for-profit online institutions. Also, my ultimate goal is to get into nurse anesthesia, as quickly and cheaply as possible. Any feedback on Phoenix's p...

Texas Ged
I've never been to this ng, and I don't know if I'll get a response. Anyway, I'm a 21 year old male, who has the desire to be a teacher inthe public school system. But I seem to have alot against me. I dropped out of high school, got my GED a week later, aced that test, and previously in school, I aced the Texas TAAS test the first try. I do not have the money to pay for college, and don't even know if I'll be able to get into college. I would like to find somewhere where I can maybe get so...

Which are the best Dental schools???
Can anyone tell me which are the best Dental Schools in USA and in canada tooYou can't really put the name "best" on any given dental school. Each school has its strengths and weaknesses. Its like saying (I understand you're from Canada) which school is better, Waterloo or McGill. In the field of engineering, McGill is not fit to hold Waterloo's jock straps but if we shift to sciences, Waterloo is no match. One dental school may be strong in the research, another may be strong in...

Whittier Law School, law school question
I would like to go to law school. I do not have a bachelors degree. I am a Registered Nurse. Anyone know of any "good" law schools that are accredited and will take less than a bachelors degree for acceptance?I don't know where you live, but in most states, you need a bachelor's to enter law school. California is one of the few states where you can get a license after going to law schools that don't necessarily require a bachelor's. Most of those schools are NOT ABA-accredited. ...

Theological Distance Education, Andersonville Theological Seminary
I work with a guy who is receiving a degree from Andersonville Theological Seminary. Anyone know anything about this school?"Andersonville Theological Seminary is accredited by the Accrediting Commission International (ACI), located in Beebe, Arkansas." ACI is an unrecognized accrediting agency, doing business for many years. There is no substance to its process. Schools claiming such accreditation are simply trying to fool people into thinking the schools are actually accredit...

It is the world's first dedicated educational satellite, according to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).

However, they require actual observation of teaching practice which is normally carried out by their own faculty. Whether they would agree to such observation being carried out by a...

US Driving Skill ???
US in F1 ?? Y.O.Y. are there not more N.American drivers in Formula 1 ?? I'm sure that most people would say that Formula 1 racing requires a higher level of driving skill than Noddy - sorry - Indy Car racing (there are numerous examples of this, Mansell, Andretti etc.). So the reason can't be that they figure they've reached the pinnacle of a driver's career when they get to Indy and don't wish to progress. I doubt also that the financial rewards in Indy etc, can...

I've looked at the Web sites for Oak Meadow, Trent Academy, and Christa McAuliffe Internet School. Does anyone have any experience with these or any other high-school level internet schools? Does anyone have any experience starting homeschooling at the age my daughter's at?Yes this is my first year of ho...
