Education & Reference - 14 September 2007

I know there is a shortage of special ed teachers in the US. But, it's such a large area. Can I specialize in ADHD and learning disabilities? I am looking into getting a master's, but my interests are specific.

My girlfriend has graduated from college last month. She has not been finding any jobs that are related to her field yet, and she wants to stay in town. She has applied for many jobs that only require a high school diploma. Almost none have called her for an interview. She is a college graduate. My question is, will employers not call people because they are over-qualified? In her case, is she not getting calls because those employers are calling people with only a high school diploma? I need an outside opinion on this.

Right now I'm on Year 6 at a junior college, a 2-year college, to get my General Ed credits, before going to film school. I feel like just giving up, but won't. How long should I go until I just give up? 12 years, including University work? I have no credits towards my degree.

I have a Skills Certificate in Digital Video.
I'm working towards an IGETC degree (Associate's degree in General Ed)
I want to transfer to a film school for a Bachelor's degree in Film.

Well I am getting to the point in which I need to know what I can do for a living. I figured it out but I need some help. I wanna be a lawyer. Ok make a good salary right? but theres a catch. I also wanna be a History Teacher. Is there any courses you need to become a history teacher or even a teacher? I after my years of college are finished I was thinking about working at a law firm for two or three years then resign and go work for a High school,Middle School. would that be smart to do. I've already heard that teachers have crappy salaries so I wanted to get a house which I can pay with from my law years. Does that sound like a good investment or should I try a diffrent approach?

say i have a diagram...
MY TOPIC IS: Catered lunches for schools (ex. McDonalds, Sonic, Pizza Hut) and we have to oppose or support the topic.
I opposed it. I wanted to choose oppose even though i do supoort it but it would make a quick and easier paper. We also have to have 3 reasons why you oppose this. and i choose how it would effect the SCHOOL, MONEY, AND HEALTH
so the diagram is like this:

3 bubbles:

1 BUBBLE: MONEY
2 BUBBLE: SCHOOL
3 BUBBLE: HEALTH

NOW I NEED THREE SUPPORTING DETAILS AND I DON`T KNOW WHAT?

Why would a teacher choose to give students a specific set of activities to explore without allowing the students to explore their own questions and collect and interpret their own data?
