  • 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.

    Goldwave is like Audacity. I had a student use it, so maybe it's just as good?

  • 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.
