Fast Masters Degree?
#62
It's another non-cheap option, but I'm 1/2 way through my M.Ed in Curriculum and Instruction at Concordia University - Portland. In fact tomorrow officially ends the 5th class of 10, and I started the program the last week of Feb. Classes are 5 weeks long and generally have assignments due 5-6 days a week at midnight, PST. Usually 2 discussions, responses to those, and a paper or another discussion, or two papers and a discussion, so on. Usually you can get the teachers to work with you if you can't quite keep the schedule, though. The instructors have been hit and miss... Some laughably bad and some really good.

It's about $19k for the program though (But I ended up with free books and an iPad mini). I should be done in March - though I don't know how the holiday season is going to affect things. And it is a Lutheran school, if that matters, as well, so you get a bit of scripture and morality tucked into the classes.

Edit - Oh, yeah, it's an R.A. non-profit with a B&M Campus (and sports team Go Cavs!) if that makes any difference. It costs a bit more than other options, but as a CC Level adjunct instructor (at a 'professional college', well, two as of next week) the Masters degree is opening up quite a few doors. Right now I can only teach computer-related classes (w/ a B.S., 20 years experience, and a buttload of certs), but when my M.Ed. is conferred, I'll be able to teach Psych, English Lit, Math (ugh - not gonna happen) and other misc. Gen-ed courses. More courses, more money and opportunities for me.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.

Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully
