Distant Education and the net.

...distance education is a distinct “nontraditional” type of education. In
his book Learning at the Back Door, Wedemeyer (1981) stated, “As Moore pointed out,
learning apart (physically separated) from a teacher by means of communications through
print, mechanical, or electronic devices implies quite a different concept of learning from
that acquired in school” (p. 111). . . . . .a revolutionary approach to learning that is just beginning to be noticed by administrators and program planners in higher education as well as those in government, business, and industry more . . . http://www.uady.mx/~contadur/sec-cip/articulos/libros_online/educacion/LawrenceErlbaum2003HandbookOfDistanceEducation.pdf#page=779"

Facebook: A popular and internationally recognized social utility.

I have been a member on Facebook since 2006. I was invited by a former classmate. Since then, I have re-connected with many old friends from my immediate community, as well as with those who relocated; relatives, and others in and around Boston. It has been a truly great experience. There are many interesting features--some of which I simply do not use. I am also the creator of at least one new group which brought some very interesting people together. As a writer, I know reading can be a boring and time-consuming to some, so I try not to write too much; however, a few of my poems are available for viewing on my personal page.
