I have a master’s degree, and I am interested in teaching online classes on a part time basis. Where should I start?

I am currently in a community college working online towards my GE to transfer to a university to get my bachelor’s in music and then my California Teaching credential.

My question is, is there an accredited university that offers all it’s classes in an online enviornment that would get me a Bachelor’s Degree that would make me eligible to earn a California Teaching Credential (secondary school teacher). I would like to do this so I do not have to quit my job to continue my education.

Asking for my husband, who is 44, has a B.S. in Computer Science, and 25+ years work experience as a programmer including corp experience with IBM, Peachtree Software, PriceWaterhouseCoopers and other consulting companies. He has also taught credited college classes as a adjunct professor.

He would like to teach credited college-level computer science or I/T classes remotely via the internet. But where would he find such teaching opportunities? He’s got great recommendations from the adjunct professorship and he’s a talented teacher. He even published training books.

With just a B.S. degree, he knows he’d be limited to 2-year or technical colleges, but with more of them now providing online classes, how does he get to be one of those teachers?

We’re located in North Georgia. He already has virtual meeting equipment from his other work (as a remotely based work-from-home software consultant for 15+ years).

If I buy a Blackberry will I be able to use it to log into my online classroom? I want to know if it will work with Blackboard programs, Axia’s operating system, UoP, etc. I want to be able to post to the message-boards and to check email.

Does anyone use a Blackberry to attend or to teach an online class?

Thanks!

Im doing a research project on which one is better. I think kids should be taught in schools. Im trying to think of the benefits of both, and instead of resulting to online classes, what could we do to make learning in classrooms more beneficial? If anyone has any thoughts or ideas.. or knows any websites that could help me, your thoughts would be appreciated! thanks!

I have my Masters Degree and want to do this on a part-time basis. I find this is a chicken or the egg issue. I need experience to become a teacher, but in order to become a teacher, I need experience. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you think "The Donald" should get a copy of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights? Don’t you just love it when the pampered ask a single question on Yahoo Answers, thus letting us know that they are in touch with we the turnip eaters? My kids are hungry, have no clothes, are sent to war, work in Walmart, no health care, no dental, out-sourced, no education, and I got some princess asking me for something to give on father’s day when my father is overseas fighting to give Ivanka an answer to her question?! I’m laughing my a** off how we continue to grovel at the feet of the privledged! And, furthermore…, wait a minute…, I got the tax collector at the door…, no it’s the sheriff…, it’s Con Edison…, it’s NAMBLA, no it’s AIPAC, no it’s a Homeless dude! It’s okay! I gave him a tie and he said thank you! He just wanted it to hang himself with it! Whew! I thought I had problems!

I want to get my education degree (already have a B.Sc.) but am currently living in a remote northern Canadian town. I would like to investigate some universities, american or preferably Canadian, that offer either part or complete bachelor of Education degrees online. Tips or Recommendations?

I think my question is a little different, so here it goes..

All my life I’ve been somewhat entertained by drawing, enough to be good at it and accepted into a great art school. I figured, since I’m good at it I might as well pursue it. Recently though, I realized I have a greater gift for caring and nursing things back to health. I also have an ability to understand animals and have them trust me right away (maybe because I watch so much Animal Planet).

I’ve always been interested in science and biology but never had the confidence back in the day to pursue something so ambitious. Now that I’m older with a degree, albeit with a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts degree, I’ve realized that finding a career is not just settling for something your good at, but it’s pursuing something you enjoy. I also feel like I have the confidence now to do well and study. I’ve moved from New York City to South Carolina, and everyone seems to think I’ve made the funniest choice, but this just feels right to me, even if pursing a degree in art education is the "practical" way to go.
If I don’t live and breathe art, then I’m not worthy to be an art teacher, and unfortunately will not be happy.

I say unfortunately, because this would be the much less expensive and more logical way to go, considering these hard economical times.. but my boyfriend has family in Athens, GA. At UGA, they have a great vet school and I really enjoyed my experience visiting the school.

My question is mainly for future vets and people who are already vets. I’m consider vet tech school FIRST so I can earn some income and experience, but mainly for income. But do you think this is the greatest idea? What do you think I should do? Will already having a degree of some kind (from a great art college that also includes required liberal arts credits) help me or am I back at square one with all the high school incoming kids? I’ve volunteered, and will continue volunteering at animal shelters, and special needs events. Will that help me as well? What are some schools that you recommend, and how did you get through or are going through vet school, financially? I’ve never filled out any kind of financial aid previously, mainly because I was fortunate enough to have parents who could pay for it outright. But I feel this is something I need to work hard for and fill financial aid for since my parents are older then most parents for my age, and my dad is about to retire. My mom on the hand, will work until she perishes.

I’m a good student and get A’s when I focus. I have ADHD inattentive, but that just means I have to study harder, exercise and eat right, which I do. I’ve never done a drug in my life, which is why the medication for ADHD scares me, and the reason why I treat it naturally. I’m also left handed, which for sure would affect my surgery skills. A few weeks ago I volunteered with MUSC dental students at the Special Olympics and medicine really feels like the place for me.

Thank you for reading this (long) inquiry. I understand if I don’t get that many answers, but if you can answer this question (again, I prefer medical students/vet medicine students/vets/doctors themselves to answer), I’d appreciate it. Thank you.

In my town there is a program I can take for dental assisting and once I graduate the program I have guaranteed admission into a highly competitive dental school to further my education if I wish. I’d like to go into dental hygiene but after I complete this program I will have a degree in dental assisting and it would probably be best to continue down that path if I decide to further my education.

(I am not a hater. If you can get into a name brand, then you go for it. I am highlighting a truth that should put some folk mind at ease. Thousands of Ivy Leage graduates will tell you that the school and the hype did not help them lovate gainfully employment)

Sorry, I am here to debunk a well establisned myth. Millions of us are convinced beyond a reasonable doubt the certain colleges guarantee success. Well, you have been deceived. While it is good to go to an Ivy League University, Wall street and the rest of the world are not waiting for you. THIS IS NOT THE SEVENTIES! I want to take my time and debunk this lie again; the college or university does not matter-you do!! Your abilities, skills, and knowledge are the ONLY thing employers seek.

When I was in college, I believed all the lies. I was obsessed with making only "A’s" because teachers and professors said it matters. After eight years of college, I kept an "A" average. I attended several private colleges that had reputations for academics. When I got in the world of work, no one cared about my colleges, GPA, or twice "Summa Cum Laude." I was so confused.

I had convinced myself that employers would make a big fuss over me because of my GPA and private colleges.. The truth is, most showed contempt because they were not achievers. They are looking for experience and not showmanship. If you attended an Ivy League School and cannot pass the BAR, what have you accomplished besides being unemployed? I work with a Stanford graduate who is my company’s accountant. He is stressed and works on weekends. The previous account was an assitant who had attended a community college in Amarillo, Texas. She was brilliant and kept up with several accounts without complaint. She never stayed late or acted stressed.

This is a new day and age. All schools are created equal when it comes to course content because more State and Private colleges are offering state of the art courses. These courses allow the student to sail through State and National exams. Certification speaks volume when applying for a position that asks for such..

Many parents assume that their child is getting the best education if they attend certain universities. That is NOT always the case in 2009. A few years back, the best dental school in the country was not John Hopkins or Harvard Medical. It was San Antonio Allied Health. The best Law school that continues to win national titles to this day is Regency University in Virginia. It is not your traditional name brand school.

The worldforce is looking for competency, not labels. You can graduate from Harvard, Yale, or Vanderbilt and be a complete idiot and unprepared for the job market. I know a lady that put her three children through Trinity University. This is a very expensive school. In fact, some homes cost less than what it costs for one year. The mother wanted to give her children an edge in life as do most parents. The oldest child ended up working a menial job. The second found a job as a desk clerk at a motel. The third one is still out there. They got the name, so their rmission was accomplished.

So, stop stressing yourself about getting into a "Namebrand." If you want a job in the 21st Century, you best prepare yourself for the competition. Your competition is not coming from Columbia, MIT or Penn State. It is coming from community schools, East Mississippi or San Diego State.

Why wouldn’t moslem men fight visciously to continue their slave-holding culture where women are the property/chattel of men? Women can be legally tortured, maimed, disfigured and even killed. women cannot own property, choose marriage partners, drive cars, vote, get education or seek divorce. Women need men’s "permission" to leave the 4 walls of their homes, handle even small amounts of money, or seek any health/dental/emergency care. The children born to women are the property of their fathers immediately after birth and women have no choice regarding the number of pregnancies. All family labor, both indoor and outdoor is the burden of the women.etc Yet none of the civilized/industrialized nations intervene because the freedom of MEN is not impaired.

I am an instructor and I will start to teach this summer online. I want to know how to check if students are cheating. Let’s say some student may be in chicago and their friends who is doing all there works is let’s say in california, can I detecte that? how do I know where my student are and where are located the person who is actually doing the work. Is there a simple way to see that? Can I check IP’s?

My mother and I have had a rocky relationship for about the last ten years. I’m 25 years old and went through the typical teenage rebellion like most females I know. After I went to college and things got a little better, mostly because I wasn’t home a lot. The real problems really started after graduation.
I was hired as a journalist three months after graduation but the pay was extremely low, so I was forced to continue living at home. A year later, I went back to school to get my certification to teach elementary education and haven’t been able to find a job. (I live in Western PA, where it’s very competitive and all about contacts.)
My mother seems to be less than supportive about certain things that I do and it has really built up over the years. For example, when I was a journalist, the paper I worked at closed down and I was really upset. My mom had little to no sympathy and said in almost a mocking tone, "Well, at least your boyfriend can come to the rescue." Then she said that life was a journey. I was thinking that I was sure this wouldn’t be her reaction if she lost her own job.
I am still living at home because I’m a substitute teacher and can’t afford to live elsewhere, but am getting married in less than three months (thank God). She’s upset that I don’t do more around the house, like buy groceries and cook dinners. I can’t afford to buy groceries; I make around ,000 a year and pay 0 a month in student loans, my phone bill and insurance. As for cooking dinner, I’m not usually home and we don’t often have family meals anymore anyway. I do the dishes when I am home, though.
I know I could be more helpful and probably should, but like anyone else, I hate chores. The other thing is, it’s not my house, which has been pointed out to me a multitude of times. This makes me feel even less like helping.
Things have recently gotten to a head when my mom and I had yet another long (and mostly pointless) conversation about what we could do to patch up our relationship. In this conversation, she finally admitted that she treats my brother and sister better than me.
I feel that she views me as a child and treats me with very little respect. She views me as disrespectful, which I can be when I’m treated poorly.
My mother recently decided in February that she was going to sell our house. My wedding is in June. This got me upset because like most brides, I’m stressed out enough about planning and all of the changes. She accused me of being selfish and not ever thinking about what anyone else ever wants. Meanwhile, my dad doesn’t even want to move; the whole house thing is all about her, so I felt that was incredibly hypocritical. I’m only getting married once and I want it to be a good experience. What it has turned into is having to leave constantly while people trek through the house almost every day.
I feel like she doesn’t care about me at all sometimes. A month ago, we went out to eat with my fiance, sister, brother-in-law, cousins and aunt. Before dinner came, my mom announced to everyone that I hadn’t gone to the dentist in two years because I don’t have dental insurance and can’t afford it. I was beyond mortified. I take good care of my teeth and they look great. I don’t know why she would do something like this. She claims not to remember it. Things like this happen all of the time and all I can think of is that she never would talk to or about my siblings like this in a million years.
She angers me so much that sometimes I want to say something back. (And sometimes I do.) There are times that I don’t want the house to sell because it would upset her. I’m ashamed to have these thoughts, but she’s hurt me so much that it’s hard not to.
We’ve had talk after talk, but it never amounts to anything because both of us think we’re right, or at least mostly so. I am in no means perfect. I’ve done and said things I shouldn’t have done many times over the years. I totally admit that. It’s just very hard for me to feel so disrespected and viewed so poorly by her. No one can hurt you more than your own mother.
I have a little hope that things will improve when I get married and move out, but I don’t know if I’m just being foolish and naive. How many times do you try to fix a relationship? How many times do you keep coming back to get hurt again?
