Do you have a question?
September 8th, 2009The best place these days to ask a question is in the Forum. The number of Russian spam messages coming to the blog has become unmanageable, so we have needed to shut down responses for now.
Do you want a response?
February 21st, 2009I am happy to answer questions here on the blog or in the forum. It is helpful, though, to:
a. Attach your question in the blog to a current post. Attaching it to an unrelated post from a year ago can be problematic;
or
b. Start a new thread in the forum and not attach your question to an old forum post (unless it is truly related to it).
I think that helps both readers and me.

Online high schools survey
February 2nd, 2008This survey was sent in my direction. If you are an online high school student, you might consider participating.
I am a doctoral student working on my dissertation at Capella University in the school of professional studies.
My dissertation is on engagement in the learning process for online high school students. Specifically I am trying to evaluate what aspects of course design engage high school students and therefore lead to more motivated learners and deeper learning.
In simpler terms, what do high school students like \ dislike in their online classes?
For my research I have developed an online survey for students to complete. The survey is completely anonymous and no personal information is collected. Students will have the opportunity to take part in a virtual focus group to finish the data collection process if they wish to.
I am looking for high school students who are currently taking or have taken online classes ( one or more) and who would be willing to complete this online survey (10-15 minutes).
You can help by forwarding this email to other educators and or students and asking them to do the same.
I am looking to survey as diverse a group of students as possible and trust that the vastness and chaos of the Internet will get this message out to lots of interested high school students.
Information about the survey and a link to the actual survey can be found at:

Time is of the essence this survey is slated to be open from Feb1, 2008 to Feb 29th, 2008
Thanks for help in spreading the word
