Academics

If you’ve been on the internet for more than five minutes, you are sure to be bombarded with web ads for distance learning graduate programs. One of the reasons why there are so many ads for distance learning graduate programs is that they are becoming more and more acceptable in the public view. But you need to have common sense about you when selecting a distance learning graduate program for yourself.

Not For The Health Profession

In general, any distance learning graduate program aimed at any kind of health care professional – whether it’s for conventional or alternative medicine – is not going to be a legitimate degree, but rather just a really expensive piece of paper. Think about it – would you want to go to an acupuncturist who didn’t go to a real school and learning with real bodies, but got a distance learning graduate program?

That’s a bit of an exaggeration, but the idea still applies. There have been chiropractors to CEOs of big companies who have been ferreted out for having fake degrees. The person might still be competent in the job and honestly thought the degree was legitimate, but the degree is still fake. There are so many fraudsters, that it’s hard to get to all of them.

But in some professions, like business, going through a distance learning MBA program is considered just as legitimate a degree as one earned by the traditional methods. This is because of the nature of the work. You can usually do most office work in your head or on the computer. Telecommuting for office work is going up, so naturally, so is getting the education for this line of work.

You Get What You Pay For

Distance learning graduate programs are not cheap. You are looking at least five figures here for your eventual price tag. The average cost of an online MBA is about $10,000 (US). And you will not be allowed to slack off. You will have to hit the books just as hard as someone who has to go to a real classroom. People pay up because it means getting promotions and being qualified for high paying jobs.

Before you sign up for such an expense, be sure your potential distance learning graduate program is accredited. Check with your state’s Department of Education. You also want to check the website of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation, a non-profit watchdog of graduate degrees on offer.

As a reader makes progress in his reading ability, he checks his progress and analyses his speed reading abilities and evaluate his comprehension level. A speed reader usually considers what he is going to get from any reading material, initially scanning through the content to familiarise himself with the content, then go on to carefully consider some unclear statements after completing the reading exercise. For instance, some of the diseases that causes serious illness such as hay Fever, Asthma and Cholera are a result of infection from Dust mites.

Few 20%, instead of siding with the Trivial Many 80%. Remember it as the difference between Skimming and Scanning. Dr. Norman Weinsberger, University of California, Irvine, November 2006, Journal of Neurobiology of Learning and Memory has produced the first study linking the level of Acetylcholine (ACh) as the neurotransmitter responsible for the amount of detail encoded in long-term memory. The nucleus basalis area of the brain triggers the acetylcholine (Ach) for memory priming. To be a good speed reader, you need to implement some strategies. And these strategies need practice upon practice to make them work very well. When you are starting out, do not set unachievable goals such as trying to read and complete a big volume book in a single day. Instead of helping you to achieve speed reading, it will only frustrate your efforts. I would recommend say reading a chapter each and every day to make it interesting for you. In reading, the focus should be on understanding the contents of a material in a limited time. Dentate (tooth-like) Gyrus (ring), a serrated piece of brain structure, wrapped around your Hippocampus (Sea Horse shape) area, located in the Limbic System. When the MITs engineered a mouse without this receptor for a key neurotransmitter (hormone-like) in the Dentate Gyrus, the poor mouser had no new memories to save. He/she could not recognize or recall new locations. To humans as well as mice ? environmental recall is life itself because it is how we remember the episodes of our daily existence.

Both doctors spent the entire weekend with us learning speed reading strategies. By the end of day-1, both physicians had doubled their reading speed, without any loss of comprehension. After they completed the second day?s six hours, both were reading three-times faster than their original starting speed, and their comprehension had improved about 10%. It is irrelevant that they doubled their memory.

That means there is proof meditation can modify the structure and function of our neural networks. Davidson offers his opinion that these positive changes are permanent. As you work on this, you will soon find that you begin to process the words in your mind, an area called ‘thought stream’ rather than your tongue or throat. Through speed-reading you can keep pace with your thinking speed without any brakes in the form of ‘skip backs’. This greatly enhances your reading and comprehension skills. It is then upto you to go and read the relevant books before preparing an essay. The tutorial is an opportunity to refine your arguments and understanding rather than be taught the material. In the recent years several extensive studies have proven the connection between certain vitamins and minerals and proper brain functioning. Sugar for example, provides temporary quick stimulant but fades very soon after that (hour or two), and what is more when sugar rush fades we often feel even more tired and sluggish then before. Our brain works the same, if you were to feed it only with candy bars you would not get much mileage from it, and you would experience often crashes. When college students are able to prioritize the text they must read before a heavy test, they can increase the speed at which they complete their studies.

I’m considering enrolling in Boston Universities (online)MS in Computer Info Systems. Does anyone think that this is a bad idea? Also, does an online degree from an established university carry the same stigma as an online degree from the for-profit schools? By the way, the only way anyone would know if I got the degree online is if I told them. There are no special identifiers on the degree.
