I homeschool my two boys and the lady I sit for pays me extra to hs her dd for preschool.  I HIGHLY recommend you hs if you have the will and the ability.  Two big things to remember with hsing at ANY level is: one day at a time...you're not talking about geometry and calculus yet.  Second...it's not forever unless you want it to be.  She can re-enter public school when she is ready.  You can email me, I started hsing my now 4th grader when he was in K.  He has TONS of confidence, he gets ONE  ON ONE education, I teach him the way he learns best, rather than plunking him down in a group of 30 kids and droning on at a chalk board...I use manipulatives, pc programs, games, baking to learn fractions, printouts from sites like enchantedlearning.com etc etc.  When he needs a break, he gets one.  We hs year round, so he doesn't forget half over the summer, but our hs days are short.  He learns things he WANTS to learn about.  When he showed an interest in pirates, we got books from the library, coloring pages from the internet, we built a ship, made our own course on a map, created a flag, etc etc.  HSing is the BEST at your dd's age, because you can take ALL the pressure off of her, and teach to what she needs, one thing at a time if you like.  If she is currently crying over math, take a break from the usual math stuff, and play dice games instead!  Just because it's fun, doesn't mean you can't use it for school.  Think outside the box, teach her fast math skills by having her play games!  Teach her spelling by only drilling in the car, and make it fun!  See what I mean?  And don't let the folks that know NOTHING about hs except for the freaks they find on tv worry you about socialization.  There are hs groups in your area to help.  There are groups online.  There are church groups and public sports and music lessons and play groups for socialization.

Are you talking about INTASC standard 2 (about student learning and develoment)? \nTeachers need to know how learning takes place in order to choose educational activiites which fit best with how learning takes place.  They also need to know about the development of students (cognitive, emotional, and physical) to understand how students of a particular age may learn best and choose developmentally appropriate practices for the students based on their attention span, interests, priorities, cognitive development, etc.

My mother has been a teacher for 30+ years; she uses www.edhelper.com. As a college student my professors recommend www.infoplease.com/homework. A good friend of mine uses www.reference.AOL.com. Hope one of these works for you!

m+m the best thing you can do is contact adult education at your local Board of Education.  They have programs that start with people who can not read, write or spell.  I know people who have done it and go on to be able to enter college or trade school.  Anything you do along that line will help you greatly.  If you know someone who has the time try to get them to help.  If you really do not want to share your problem with anyone, get the leapster type things that young children use to get started learning.  They can be found in toy departments.  Good luck and God Bless you for wanting to learn.

I work at a University - below is a link to la list of study skill guides we produce. You should talk to your student services department at your college - they should have tips from previous students and guides for life/study balance.\n\nDo as much work in your College library as you can - there are no distractions there. Even an extra hour a couple of times a week would be good. Study during your lunch break. Design easy study flows that can be picked up and put down to learn the basics - keep these next to the toilet, the bath, bed, in the kitchen, and swot up whenether you can.\n\nTalk to your tutors if you have any difficulty at all. they are the profesionals, they should be able to help, they do not want you to fail, they want you to do as well as you can.\n\nGood luck! You can do it! Mature students make better students than kids - they have decided themselves to learn, rather than being forced to.

Try Education Resources Information Center (ERIC).  It has a searchable database that contains literally thousands of useful articles.  I've given the ERIC link below in Sources, also a link to a listing of electronic education journals, and to a site that deals specifically with literacy journals.  Hope this helps.

Check "ERIC" which is the Education Resources Information Center.  Just type in "retention" and you will have a wealth of scholarly articles to choose from.  When I am looking for things I always do an advanced search and click for full-text articles otherwise you might see an abstract or title for something really good but not be able to access it.

Karen,\nAs a university instructor, the advice I give students in your position is to TAKE A SEMESTER OFF!!  There's no timeline in life where formal education is concerned and in\norder to get the best life has to offer you have to remember that: a) most learning takes place outside of the\nclassroom and b) learning is a lifelong endeavor.\nTake some time to really think about what you want to do.\nIf you continue along this vein, you're really just spinning your wheels, wasting your time and money, and will\nend up with a career that's not suited to you at all.\nStep away from college for awhile.  Flip burgers, travel,\njoin Americorps....anything that gives you some time to\nfind your real joy and goals in life.

Education and ignorance stands together. When a human being getting old, then she/he learned much but the sorrunding also getting old to them. So, we need to make youthfulness on education where we will invest our time for being a educator ourselves. Education for all will make the happened. Keep your hand for UN.

I doubt it. You could try the guide below.\nYou could also spend the $29 for a year's subscription to classmates.com, if it was important to you.

It depends on the topic. Can you be more specific? WHat do you teach? Maybe you should establish a link with the previous lesson. If it is not possible, just say : Today we are going to study...

There is a  rather new language school in Indianpolis\nhttp://www.indyfla.com\nas well as a more established one\nhttp://www.languagetrainingcenter.com/\nIUPUI continuing education usually has French courses (borochure was in a recent Sunday Star/News\nAsk your local school district.  If there is enough interest, there may be a teacher who would be willing to do an adult education class.  (I've thought about inquiring at my district office to see if there were interest, but there is soo much Spanish.)  If you can get about five people together, the class might run.

Hey there - I am Jo and I am doing a Bachelor of Primary Education with a Special Needs minor in Western Australia.\n\nI get the feeling this is an essay question.  I guess it depends on what you are referring to as "the alternative".  We have already discussed with PowerPoint as the alternative, I see, however as an education student who subscribes to the theory of Authentic Learning, lets say that the alternative is situated experience.\n\nPiaget believed that we "learn by doing and by thinking about our experience" (Shor, 1992, 17).  Education, in this case, is not something that is done TO students, but rather done BY students.  Authentic learning and assessment are, in my opinion, the way to go.  \n\nGardener idetified 7 learning styles - seven intelligences in his Multiple Intelligence theory.  You would find teaching with a piece of chalk caters only to those with strength in visual and possibly auditory intelligence.  Students who are strong in kinaesthetic intelligence or musical intelligence, for example, are overlooked.  This means we need to diversify the learning experiences we provide our students, and offer them the autonomy to make choices about which experiences will best suit them.\n\nI think this is the best way to ensure each of our students has optimal chances at success.  Think outside the square.\n\nPS.  In this question, you could think about whether the it is the teacher or the student who should be holding the chalk.
