Provost Academy......the first online school I saw in person. The presentatin was good. Usually people from businesses are kind of dull when presenting. It was nice to know that there are over 1500 students enrolled in this school. The availability of the teachers is amazing. Being able to access work anytime and anywhere would have been great back when I was in high school. I still feel that you have to be focused and have discipline to actually complete all of your work. I also think that parents should be very involved in a students education which one of the best things I saw about the online school. Parents get a login name and password to monitor there kids progress. Now parents have no excuse to not knowing what their kids are doing.

It is getting close to the end of the semester. Time has flown! It seems like yesterday we starting new classes. These past weeks have been crazy though. I have had more work due in these last weeks than in my past semester's classes. Not to mention that this is my first semester writing a 1500 word paper on my own in a while since English 102 (which didn't have to be single space like the one this semester). A few more weeks and Thanksgiving break will be here and then about two weeks and the semester is over. I am looking forward to next semester. Not to having more classes, but to graduating in May 2010. I haven't decided if I want a college ring yet especially since I heard they are very expensive. Oh well.....back to the home work to that I may move on to the next semester.
