I cannot understand why the Left is so eager to create dissidents.

All students will receive an Apple Vision Pro headset as part of the program. Link: https://poetsandquants.com/2024/02/06/th...ision-pro/

Especially in the U.S., should a 10-point grading scale be standardized across all levels of education by the DOE? I have always preferred it for its simplicity in converting numbers to letter grades. I am fairly certain I had a 7-point grading scale in elementary school which never made sense. Changing the cutoff for failing can obviously be contentious but the fact that this debate is still going on throughout the country is surprising.

10-Point Grading Scale:

A = 100-90
B = 89-80
C = 79-70
D = 69-60
F = 59-0

7-Point Grading Scale:

A 100-93
B 92-85
C 84-77
D 76-70
F 69-0

I have no clue how to use this site I've read many posts but I am still kind of confused so bare with me.

I attached my program evaluation because I wasn't sure how to format it on my own.

So, I have my finger on the trigger for WGU, but I truly do not have the funds to pay cash and I do not qualify for any aid or discounts through my job (which is absurd).  I have been offered the new year and rural living scholarships, which reduce by $1,125, which is great, but still struggling to find the rest.  In this economy, loan APR is awful, so I am really discouraged.  What can I do to fund this?  I have a full time job and children, so I cannot get another job AND do schooling.  Ideally I would be thrilled to complete 30 credits in 6 months, but realistically, I see going 2 terms..Would love real suggestions..

I'm looking to take an introductory data science course -- something you'd expect from a course titled "Introduction to Data Science" or thereabouts -- and was hoping some of you might have some recommendations. 

I'm looking for a course from a RA community college, college or university, so unfortunately alternative credit sources like Coursera, Study.com, CLEP, etc. are out. The faster and cheaper the course the better, though, so a school with ~8-week sessions or self-paced, and a cost of ~$300 or less per credit, would be ideal.

In terms of course content, it'd be best if it were geared towards business students (though this isn't strictly necessary) and explicitly mentions that it touches upon data science, analytics, and intelligent automation. But feel free to post any Intro to Data Science courses you're aware of, even if they don't tick all these boxes. Thanks!

Wondering if this is a thing.  Cursory look around not uncovering anything

Beginning this year (EdD only) many colleges and universities are allowing students to have options for a capstone or rigorous exam vs the dissertation.

I can honestly say this is the best way to take college courses online for credit

3 College Readiness 98% (the easiest course on Sophia even with writing the paper)
3 Introduction to Information Technology 94% (easy for anyone with an IT background)
3 Visual Communications 97% (easy but you may need to watch some videos here or there)
3 Environmental Science 95% (the only course that took me more than one day of free time, moderately difficult, you just have to push through it)
3 Introduction to Nutrition 98% (I blew through this course but then again I research nutrition as one of my hobbies, otherwise moderately difficult.)
1 The Essentials of Managing Conflict 100% (not hard but boring and irrelevant information)

Ironically I did not read anything for Introduction to IT and Introduction to Nutrition otherwise I would have scored higher. Since all of these are pass/fail it does not really matter. I also noticed that when I got a question wrong, it was because I was going too fast and read it wrong. The way they phrase questions sometimes just wastes your time.

The difficulty of the courses is going to depend largely on your background. I see no reason why anyone competent would not be able to complete at least one unit of a course a night.

College Readiness may seem like a joke to anyone who has previously attended a 4 year university but it is essential information for someone starting out, do not skim through it if that is the case. Freshman Seminar on my transcript from my university is worth 0 credits so this is a better deal and much more informative. Courses like Introduction to Nutrition are very good courses if you want to learn something relevant to everyday life. Visual Communications also has a unit on fonts and I recommend reading and/or watching all the material there if you are in IT.

If you are debating on using the platform, give it a try. Start with College Readiness and knock that out to give you some confidence.

Hi everyone, does Spanish I and II satisfy both GEC and history concentration requirements? Which means program just need 114 credits instead of 120 ? Thank you
