    I love reading Giroux (who wrote one of the chapters). He is so smart and sees such interesting perspectives and (but) as one of my professors who was a classmate of his noted - and he knows it. This looks like a really interesting book, Barb. Thanks for adding it. I think I will order it - if it doesn't cost hundreds of dollars!

    Wow, Amazon has it for under $1.00!

    It was Giroux's chapter that the link went to. He was a little hard to read, but I'm hoping one day I'll be able to read it. $1.00 is a BARGAIN!!

Mark Warschauer: How to Write a Statement of Purpose for a Ph.D. Program « Pa... - 1 views

    Mark Warschauer is one of the most knowledgeable in the field of developing online education. His advice on what to share in your Statement of Purpose for a Ph.D program resonates with some insight in what NOT to tell :-) " People who are reading a SOP for Ph.D. programs care about two things: (1) Do you have the potential to be an outstanding scholar? And (2) are your research interests a good match for the Ph.D. program and its faculty? Anything beyond these two things is superflous. Your SOP should thus be directed to getting these two things across. "

    An easy read about the difference between Positivism and Post-Positivism. Still trying to get my head around all this philosophical stuff.

    Hey Barb, I have been on that site many times and it's pretty good. I still have a hard time with those two issues but better now since I have a few classes under my belt. It does take a lot get one's arm around it and I still struggle at times so you are not alone.
