Can someone explain that to me?

I am currently enrolled in an online accounting program to obtain my bachelors degree in accounting. I'm curious as to whether or not a person can attend 2 different schools at the same time. While still attending my school, I wanted to know if I could apply to another to obtain an accounting diploma online. I just thought it might further my career to have as much training as possible, but I didn't know if you could actually do this or not. Any advice would be appreciated.

An Oxymoron is a self-contradicting term or a paradox, usually only two words, sometimes a bit more. For example- "military Intelligence". I'm making a list of the great ones.... What's your favorite?

Im suppose to write a compare and contrast essay on Oliver Twist , the movie and the novel. This is my introduction for my essay tell me what you think of it and if i should change anything thanx.

Have you ever thought of what it would be like if you lived in a time of poverty? How would it be like if you were poor and did not know from where you would be getting your next meal? These are only a couple questions you might ask yourself if you lived in the early nineteenth century. Dickens addresses these issues in his timeless masterpiece Oliver Twist. In the story of Oliver Twist, Dickens uses past experiences from his childhood and targets the poor Law of 1834 which renewed the importance of the workhouse as a means of relief for the poor. Although the novel gives a good insight on the plot and characters, Oliver Twist is more entertaining on screen.

I and my brother and sister want to try homeschooling, but so far have found nothing we can afford and few that we even liked. We're really looking for programs that send us the work that we complete and send back to get graded. We would really appreciate any information given to us. Thanks

I am writing a paper for a class and I was need to use APA format. I haven't ever used APA and didn't know whether you have to just follow the formatting guidelines (margins, header, etc.) or a specific format in which to write (hypothesis, research, results, etc.). I'm not writing a "research" paper rather a topic justification paper on a research topic, if that makes sense.

Thanks!

I have tried a variety of starters in class, and I have not been happy with any of them.

In English, I have tried various forms of journals (quote responses, tailored to the day's work, current events response), grammar exercises (workbooks, corrections, you name it), and a hybrid where students (supposedly) revised the same paragraph over the course of the week.

In Spanish I, I have had students make charts breaking down meaning & form of cognates, translate simple pop songs, conjugate sets of regular verbs, and answer questions about weather maps.

I want something to get them in thinking mode and settle them the heck down. They always seem to think starter time is chatting time and then wonder why they don't don't have the starters done when it's time to turn in.

I'm thinking trivia or brain teasers, but what would be a good source for these that would keep them BUSY FOR 5-10 MINUTES while I take attendance and maybe check work, that would CALM THEM DOWN?

Freshman in high school. I was interrupting her (occasionally) asking too many questions, and SOMETIMES commenting what she says. OK, I was once in Mardan special ed school, a school for kids with behavioral/social problems. I got out of it in 8th grade, and they gave me a special circumstance aide. I got rid of it in October, 9th grade. My teacher always suggested I have the aide back whenever I got in trouble. Is she right in requesting I have my aide back???

P.S. My behavior was an N and I was interrupting her (occasionally) asking too many questions, and SOMETIMES commenting what she says.


IS SHE RIGHT???


CAN SHE REQUEST I HAVE MY AIDE BACK???


ANY IDEAS???
