Distance learning/online degree program resources: are there any decent ones?

We Answered:

There are some that aren't completely advertising supported by the for profits.

Program search engine: Peterson's http://www.petersons.com/distancelearnin… and USNews http://www.usnews.com/directories/e-lear…

Discussion boards: Degreeinfo - http://forums.degreeinfo.com/ and Degree Discussion - http://www.degreediscussion.com/forums/

Ratings and "Best Buys" - Geteducated.com http://www.geteducated.com/

News etc. - eLerning Pundit http://www.elearningpundit.com/

Note: UoP, Strayer, etc. are not "degree mills" - a degree mill is a different animal altogether. These for profits may not be the best academics out there but they're far better than the true degree mills.

For math take a look at (in addition to Chadron State):
Ellis College - NYIT
SUNY - Empire State
Northern Arizona U
St Mary of the Woods
U Illinois - Springfield
U Illinois - Urbana

Math just isn't one of those areas a lot of people are clamoring to study online.

Has anyone here received a Masters Degree via distance learning/online degree program?

We Answered:

Yes I have. I got my master in education through Walden University. It was excellent. You learn so much from your colleagues because you read their discussions, contribute your own and respond to discussions with suggestions or experience. Colleagues respond to you as well. The instructor serves as a guide in the discussions and in the reflections that you present. You learn from the experiences of others, research and your own experience in the classroom. We did one unit per week. You take one course at a time/ 2 courses per semester (8 weeks each).

I completed the course work in 20 months, thats non-stop and frankly I have learned so much from it I am sharing and using findings with my colleagues and in my teaching. I will endlessly recommend it but you have to be a self-directed learner before you delve into online learning. It takes expert time management for research, writing, reading and watching lectures. Also, excellent file management to gather your work.

Ray Said:

What are some public colleges/universities that offer either online degrees or distance learning?

We Answered:

Wise course of action. Many public universities offer a variety of online-distance ed courses. Probably your state university does. Check their website. If they don't seem to contact the office of admissions and ask anyway. If they don't have what they want they might well give you good advice about who does.

Good luck
