I am using an online program from Western Governor's University. I am getting my master's degree in Mathematics Education.

Anybody know anything about this program or have a masters in math ed?

I don't have a masters in Math, but do know several friends that have graduated from Western Gov Unv and they loved it.

So you will be in good hands

I don't have a Masters in math, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express. That qualifies me to use a calculator.

I tested out of College Algebra! Then got stuck in an upper level Trig class with instructor who talk with heavyyyyyy accent! It was not a pretty picture! We didn't master much of anything that sememster! Actually pretty much despised math classes after that!

His motto was "do math in head - no use paper or calculator"

I DON'T THINK SO! Better luck to you! Makes me shiver thinking about it!

well, I just got started, but I plan to finish in a year and a half or a year if possible.

It took me a little bit to get used to the program, but I am really beginning to like it.

I have been working on calculus today and I have been losing track of time!!!

I most likely won't get my doctorate.... but, I really like calculus so that is why I lose track of time.

Congratulations Teach, I know you will do great. There was a report on the local news yesterday about the increase in students taking online classes, seems the gas crisis has encouraged this.
