  • I got my Masters in Computer Science and did it all online. But, there was so much work involved with those classes that just about every single night I was logged on. I seriously think it ended up being more work than if I had to have sat in a classroom and listened to a lecture and still did projects, etc. But Computer Science is totally different from Education, so don't take anything I say to heart But I do know that online classes usually require some "discussion" assignment that you do online because you don't get classroom time. I only had 1 professor (out of 10) who recorded his on-site lectures and made us listen to them for the class. With everyone else, we jsut had to read the text. And it was a LOT of reading. That and coding projects usually took up most of my time.
  • The unniversity of Pheonix contacted me. It seems doable. I only work three days a week right now. I know it wouldn't be easy. But physically going to school is impossible. The nearest school is an hour away and costs $40,000 (private Catholic College) for your master's. The next closest is an hour and a half.

    My concern with Pheonix is that it's not in speech. which rule sout teaching speech in PA. But it is a reputable school. There are others that look shady you know? With the clinical work associated with Master's programs in speech I just don't see how they can do it online. I think I need to do some research.

    But I make $115 a WEEK teaching preschool. I make $250 a DAY doing speech. It's a no brainer taht I need to get on the ball and get my degree.

  • Sunday morning weigh-in: Lost 5 pounds this week! Of course, it's Week 1 of a new program, so that's to be expected. But I'll take it!
