  • Digital dating is now the second most common way that couples get together, after meeting through friends.
  • Once potential partners meet, in other words, other characteristics take precedence over the ones they thought were important.
  • the best prognosticators of how people will get along come from the encounters between them. In other words, it’s hard to tell whether Jim and Sue will be happy together simply by comparing a list of their preferences, perspectives and personality traits before they meet. Stronger predictors of possible romance include the tenor of their conversations, the subject of their discussions, or what they choose to do together.

  • the sheer number of candidates that some sites provide their love-seeking singles — which can range from dozens to hundreds — can actually undermine the process of finding a suitable mate. The fact that candidates are screened via their profiles already sets up a judgmental, “shopping” mentality that can lead people to objectify their potential partners.
  • “Online dating sites have a vested interest in your failure. If you succeed, the site loses two paying customers.”
  • A few weeks of email and photo exchanging serves to enhance people’s attraction when they finally meet, researchers found, but when the correspondence goes on too long — for six weeks — it skews people’s expectations and ends up lowering their attraction upon meeting.

  • Quality does not lend itself to government regulation because there is no simple metric.
  • In other words, our traditional institutions typically aren't serving this population of older students any better than fully online institutions.
  • We will make great strides in quality when we define and measure learning outcomes independent of time.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • The results are published in an annual report, available on our Web site.
  • Quality is not just how many people graduate, but what those graduates know.
  • Quality is also related to how long it takes, and how much it costs, to deliver that learning
  • At Western Governors, for example, the average time to graduation with a bachelor's degree is 30 months, and the university is self-sustaining on tuition of $5,800 a year for nearly all of our programs.

  • It’s worth noting that most of the focus of the survey seemed to be on using pre-packaged games in the classroom, rather than making games or experimenting with other methods of play, and the survey is highly biased towards the digital–which is of course not inherently any more valuable for learning than physical games.

    This is an interesting website. I could see it being a valuable resource for university students, but also a way of cheating. It connects to your Facebook and you can upload class notes and materials to share with other students. What do you think? Would you encourage your students to use this? What would you do to make sure it wasn't used for cheating?

    I first heard about this from my Eng 150 Librarian, but was reminded of it the other day. If you love to read and are always looking for good books it is awesome! I noticed Professor West even has a link on the class website. Enjoy!

    I think there are probably a lot of you that already subscribe, but I've recently joined and I love having a way to keep track of the books I've read. I highly recommend it.

    It's a great way for English teachers and students to keep track of the books they've read and be able to remember them. It's also a great way to share what books you've read. You can makes groups and have discussions, too.

    I think this is really neat and I agree with it. My Creative Writing/IB English 11-12 teacher from high school has a facebook page, a personal one, and she is friends with alot of her teacher friends, current students and student alumni. Not only do we get to keep in touch with her, but she also asks our opinion on how to run the class, how to make it better, becuase we have been there before. She has also issued a challenge to all her alumni and teacher friends to keep track of how many books we have read this year, and I am now in my mid-twenties. Thanks to her, I've kept on reading and writing, all because we are friends on facebook.

    I found this cool site online. It shows you what happened in histoy on any given day of the year. I think that this would interest students and you could make an assignment for each student to find out what had happened each day/week etc and then compare it to what is going on now.

    This is a good website for future English teachers to take a look at. It gives many links to websites that can help with things like teaching poetry and grammar as well as how to make a lesson plan. It also provides the links to other teachers.
