Career Colleges and Vocational Schools

Accomplishing all levels of education is a plus factor for an individual. However, not all families can afford tertiary and post-graduate education for their children. This is why not all students who finished secondary schooling directly go to colleges and universities. One reason is that private colleges and universities require much fees and not all can afford to fund their schooling for a couple of years. Good thing there are career colleges and vocational schools that are open for everyone, even to international students, and offer short courses or undergraduate programs which provide skills training plus a diploma. These career colleges and vocational schools most often than not offer less expensive quality education for students and equip them ample skills to do work in the future.

Is Television bad for children?

Television has been a common item around the household for the last few generations. By assuming that television is bad for children we are also assuming that this item has also had a negative effect on ourselves when we were children. The problem has never been the fact that children watched too much of it. The new problem we face today is the content that is shown on the box. Gone are the days when a parent can switch on the tv for their kids and be comforted that what they see will not cause too much influence on their behaviour.

Ethical Relativism and the False Dichotomy

I believe there to be a false dichotomy among blooms

There is not a huge amount to Ethical Relativism, as far as I gather. Or at least it may be summed up by the few key statements below. All societies have their own moral code that decides what it is right and wrong in that society. There is no objective standard by which any society’s moral codes and ethical practices may be judged. There is no absolute truth in ethics so that no one society’s moral code applies to all people at all times, including those inside, and outside of their society.

E learning Authoring Tools

whiteboardRemember that old, dusty blackboard that your teachers used to write on with colorful chalks that made you sneeze? It got replaced by a white board, with a black marker that you can magically erase. Just a few years ago, a teacher whips out new acetates to show images or graphs to further illustrate a point. The next year, you’re awed at the PowerPoint presentation your professor prepared; it contains animations and moving graphics you thought you’d only see on TV or in that newly-invented Internet that contained a handful of websites. There are schools that still use these educational tools but they are all the predecessors of today’s e learning authoring tools.

The process of how to become a kindergarten teacher is similar to the process of becoming any other type of elementary school teacher, and it isn’t too much different from that of becoming a middle school or high school teacher.
