Teaching - December 2006

I heard that you shouldn't get your Master's degree from the same institution that granted you your Bachelor's degree. Is there any truth to this? Does it look better to potential employers if your degrees are from separate institutions?

Not to be rude, but, please, if you don't have personal experience (have a Bachelor's/ Master's, work in educational administration, are on the hiring committee of an educational institution) don't answer. I don't need answers like, "Sounds right to me". Thanks.

Both of my school aged kids have such wonderful teachers this year... I would love to do something truly meaningful... to let them know just how much I truly appreciate them! Any ideas for a truly meaningful present to help their teachers know just how much they mean to me and my girls?

I am currently a full time student and I work about 30-32 hours a week. I am just curious why they tell you not to work. Or has someone worked and done student teaching at the same time?

I was thinking about pursuing a career in teaching. What do you like most about your job and what skills/traits do you need to be a good teacher? I love tutoring kids, but i've never done anything in a classroom setting. What are ways I can get some experience of teaching before I decide to get a masters degree in education?? I have no background in education or taken any classes like that.

Domino game… Am I odd or even?
The teacher separated the class into groups of fives. Each group was given a case of dominos. The teacher instructed each group that they had to find 3 dominos that had only even numbers on each side, 4 dominos that had only odd numbers and 3 dominoes that had both an odd and even number.

If you are a teacher please tell me if you like your job and if it was the right choice for you. Please tell me some of your likes and dislikes about your job, and how much work on average you usually take home at night.

My daughter has been given a zero for a grade in one of her classes. She did the work, turned it in when due, and received it back from the teacher with a 100 on it. My daughter brought the zero grade to the teachers attention - and the teacher said she would change it - but has failed to do so. I emailed the teacher about this matter and she has not responded to me - should I contact the school or try to talk to the teacher again?

I am an undergrad student studying mechanical engineering, and have to write reports on a regularly.

I have come under allot of criticism concerning my sources of research. I am a hardcore fan of traditional, encyclopedias, but they do not stay up to speed with technology or current events, which is what most of my papers are on.

Recently by recommendation of one of my professors they advised www.wikipedia.org for information on current events/technology.
Since then I have come under scrutiny from a couple of other professors for using wikipedia as a source. They claimed "it is entirely subjective". But isn’t that the case with anything that is published? It is subjective to the writer? I still use wikipedia to do a considerable amount of research, but I never directly list them as a source. I personally don’t care for it, but I don’t get my paper handed back to me with comments about my research.

Any teachers out there have opinions on accepting wikipedia as a valid source?
