Teaching mathematics through Television channels.





Just when I thought I should explore the possibilities of teaching mathematics to higher class students (12th std) through popular local TV channels, the mother of one my students approached me with an offer similar to the one that I have been contemplating.



I have an appointment to meet the concerned people on this Saturday. This could be a prestigious assignment and I am really looking forward to it.



Online teaching through television channels and Internet is catching up fast in India. I believe India is a leader in this industry.

Quality online education for defense veterans.

I am extremely happy to receive an email from an ex-student of mine that conveyed that she is now holds a doctorate degree in social science. Out of various research degrees, she preferred social science to her favorite psychology because there are more employment opportunities in the field pf social science.

Since she married an U.S. army man, she was offered special discount in her tuition fees. She completed her doctorate program through online education and earned her degree from a reputed university in Colorado.

Please find detailed information on earning a degree though online study in militarydegree.com that is dedicated to provide top class higher education to U.S. Military personnel and their families.

America is such a nation that is genuinely interested in the welfare of their citizens in whatever social status they are.

Essay writing help.

One of the perennial problems for college students is the submission of essays which are not necessarily to enter an essay competition.

Essay writing assignments are given periodically to students to test their English and creative communication skill.

I used to be the first one to submit my essays during my college days. It came easily to me. But there are many students who hate essay writing assignments. I wonder whether their teachers too abhor this work because they have to compulsorily read all the writings and tolerate poor work.

Here is a solution for students who require help with their essay writing work. Custom Essay has got a lot to offer for students.

Here is a sample free essay from their web site.

Early Childhood Education from Capella University.

Being a lecturer of mathematics involved other chores such as counseling parents. During one such session, I was terribly embarrassed to face the mother of one of my students who literally fell on her knees and begged me to give special mathematics coaching to her child studying in 2nd standard. I only handle high school and college students.

I somehow convinced her that I don’t teach kindergarten children and promised to talk to the teacher of her child.

But I know that there is no need for that as I am aware of the short comings of the said kindergarten teacher. Many such teachers if they study Master of Science (MS) in Education – Early Childhood Education from capella university, they will do a great service to the nation.

Capella’s masters degree specialization in Early Childhood Education is designed to prepare teachers to design, implement, and evaluate developmentally appropriate learning experiences for young children.

Most of the kindergarten teachers require further training to understand child psychology, classroom management, and early childhood learning environment.

The curriculum of Capella’s masters degree specialization in Early Childhood Education includes all the above.

Founded in 1993, Capella University is an accredited, fully online university that offers graduate online degree programs in business, information technology, education, human services, public health, public safety, and psychology, and bachelor’s degree programs in business, information technology, and public safety.

The best online coaching website.

I am racing against time. I have so much preparation to do for my M.Phil exam on Saturday. Besides I have to prepare the test paper on Algebra for the school final students. I am conducting this test this afternoon.

Amidst all this hectic activity, I promised my colleague that I will definitely look up on this online tutoring web site and give my feedback.

Somehow, I squeezed in a few minutes and visited Tutorvista.com. The first impression I got when I landed on their home was excitement because all my favorite math subjects were listed.

Though the price for unlimited all subjects tuition package is beyond many of my students, I can ask one or two students who can afford, to avail their concession offer of $24.99 package for unlimited all subjects tuition. But I must remember to tell them that this is for the first month only.

I have also noted that they operate separately for Indians. As my most of students belong to the C.B.S.E. pattern, this website is also offering online classes for them.

Online Education Environment.

Students who have just completed their high school are after all students-ignorance is their bliss.

They all firmly believe that the experience and environment of a day scholar is far superior to a distance education student’s.

Yes, I too completed my Master of Education through distance education. But those were earlier days when the Internet was unheard of. Look at today’s Internet what it offers in the area of communication. Incredible!

If that is not so, then why will 19000 students from as many as 56 countries attend Capella University online? Capella University is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA), Ncahlc.org.

Every faculty member of Capella is a PhD degree holder with rich teaching experience. For them online education is a commitment and aspiring students at Capella are rewarded with excellent teaching and a very friendly online environment.

Recently, Sara Orem, a full time faculty of Capella has released her book on “Appreciative Coaching: A Positive Process for Change’. This is about approaching the students on a psychological basis, making deep enquiries about their positive side and thus enabling them to perform at their studies like never before.
