  1. Thanks, Kareni. Was there any classroom sort of instruction online for this or would you classify it more as a teacher-led independent study? So appreciate your help!
  2. This is so helpful! I didn't realize about the calc base for different stats courses. (I was just glad to get through the one I had years ago!) Great advice to check into the type of course most helpful for her intended degree. You probably saved her a useless course...many thanks!
  3. Any suggestions for covering mathematical statistics on the high school level? Or is there another math course you might suggest after Calculus? I'd love to find a resource that would teach, not just provide curriculum, if possible. I am familiar with the courses on Potter's School. Any other ideas? Thanks so much!:)
  4. Thanks so much; I'll check this one out. Do you know anyone who has used the program before?
  5. Thanks for your reply! If I'm understanding correctly, these classes are asynchronous, so the students don't meet all together at a certain time for discussion and lecture. I'll have to double check Patrick Henry, though. Good idea!
  6. The one in our area uses the same texts, proctored testing and long term assignments. Students are graded partially on their participation in the class forum and the level of their contributions to discussion, in my experience. HTH's.
  7. My rising senior dd would like to get a head start on college credits next year, while finishing her high school credits (hoping to count credits for both). She is interested in Christian colleges that might offer synchronous distance learning classes. So far, google has not been productive; would any of you have any suggestions? Thanks so much!:001_smile:
  8. Don't get me wrong...I'm glad church nurseries are there and I am happy for those who enjoy all the benefits from them. However, I'm looking for information to share with those who don't understand our choice as a family to worship together and not to leave a child screaming in the nursery for a couple of hours. I've used the nursery in the past...it just isn't right for this child. For those who just want to be critical, I let them do their thing. For those honestly trying to understand why it isn't right for some children or why doing church as a family is important for some families, I'd love to have worthy resources to share. Thanks!
  9. Get a wedge pillow and sleep with your upper body on the wedge part...in your own bed! Great for reflux, surgery recovery, etc. No fun to need sleep to heal but unable to get good, pain-free sleep. I hope you can find something that will work.
  10. I hate when I feel guilty about not doing something that I already don't like doing and it doesn't matter to anyone else...a real conundrum of the soul! Working through the guilt as something that is false and thinking of replacing it with something that is real to everyone, including me, does bring me peace, though. :tongue_smilie:Btw, my mom always made a big dinner on Christmas, and didn't get to enjoy us or our gifts....all 3 kids wished she would have forgotten the food and enjoyed us...both then and now. The meal is actually one of our less favorite memories of the holiday.
  11. Who is it that said something like, "Comparison is the death of contentment?" That is so true---on line and IRL. We all tend to notice all the things that other people do right and all the things we do wrong...bad for the soul!
  12. If I joined, I would be crazy (for me!). But unless you joined under duress, I imagine you want to do it and will do wonderfully. If you don't like it, you can always go back to spectator status:001_smile: or walking during their class time for exercise. I love finding ways to claim time that would otherwise be lost...moving the body and learning something new are awesome ways to do this!
  13. I'm looking for a meaty encyclopedia---up-to-date and on CD's. I want the info to be available without having to go on-line via links. Any favorites? Thanks!!
  14. Thanks so much! Your advice is very helpful.
  15. Thanks so much for your input! Do you find one size easier to use than another? Is smaller better...or larger? Appreciate your hep.
  16. Anyone...artists, photographers, digital scrapbookersl, graphic designers? Thanks!!
  17. Any graphic tablet users out there? I'm looking for advice on which ones might be most suitable for digital scrapbooking and photo editing with a PC laptop. I generally do not sit at a desk so that might be a consideration, also. Any help is so appreciated!
  18. I know it is an enormous headache and a time sacrifice---just wanted to thank you (and all WTM jurorers) for doing your civic duty and bringing an educated mind to the courtroom arena.
  19. that is NOT teacher intensive? I'm looking for good literary analysis to be taught but can't throw a lot of my time toward it. I would so appreciate your suggestions!
  20. We've used it for Pre-Alg through Pre Cal and find it rigorous for our purposes. My eldest scored well on the PSAT math with Chalkdust as a background. HTH's. Janet
  21. Thanks for all the great ideas. These are wonderful resources to use as jumping off points.
