Master Online Special Education Degree, Online College Degrees

Q: Here is a description of a university that offers degrees through distance learning by email. It is making efforts to attract people with disabilities. I have no idea about the quality--just passing the info along.

A:This sounds fascinating. I checked out the URL and filed it away for referral. My daughter has visual and learning disabilities, and although she is doing well now at a college for students with LD, they do not offer graduate programs. The one thing that she is getting at Beacon College that she wouldn't get at an online university is the social component, which at 19 (20 in June) is of great importance. You can also call 1 800 777 MIND and ask about the mind extention University 27 degree programs that are all done by distance education. Maybe you might ask also about the MEU web page and online resources. This is a new umbrella group of Jones Education Network. Many are part of a consortium of colleges and universities that all accept each other's credits. I hope this helps. I will shortly be with them with my new video series and we will do 33% of the class online as well. Anyone who does NOT affiliate with their fair use standards of distance education may well be strongly eliminated from the new accreditting agency US Dept of Edu has created for online and distance education.
