A New Initiative in Scholarships for Mothers

- by Harry Simson

For most mothers, money is more a luxury than a constant item. Between paying for housing, food, clothes for her children, and her children’s tuition in school, money is often very tight. This is one of the main setbacks for moms who want to go back to school and earn a degree. It just doesn’t seem like an option sometimes. The Obama administration has made a lot of improvements and now there are more scholarships for mothers than there ever have been in the past. This is an attempt to help moms get on with their lives and earn a living for themselves, which can be very difficult with the constant whirlwind of activity that inherently comes with motherhood.

Does Special Education Correlate With Delinquency?

- by Harry Simson

I can’t give you data, but I can give you some interpretations. I was special education teacher for over 35 years; I did 5 years of volunteer work (up to 20 hours/week) in the CaliforniYouth Authority and 2 years of part-time teaching in detention center in the 1980s. The reason was that I wanted to know how to prevent my special education students from going to jail. I worked for gang diversion project in East Lduring for year. I studied juvenile delinquency for masters program and sociology in my doctorate. There is lot of information about delinquency/criminality in socioeconomic data: poverty has high population densities, high aggression/physical abuse rates, etc. Sociologists know that “quiet” space is necessary for mental health and does not exist in households of poverty.

You’ll have to be very careful about making assumptions when reading about school statistics, because there are many factors and special conditions …

Educational Website Template Design For Teachers, Colleges and Others to Promote Education

- by Harry Simson

Knowledge is an extreme power and naturally we strive to get it. We used to learn about educational institutions from our friends, relatives, colleagues and other people, we read about them in local newspapers, we heard of them on TV or our favorite radio stations. As the progress goes on, all universities, libraries and teachers moved to Internet. They all have websites to let surfers know about them about what they do and how they do it. It is quite easy and affordable way to let people know about what you offer.

A template for your educational website is a good solution for those who want to save money on design. It is very easy to edit if it doesn’t look like you want. It is really a good idea to create a well crafted online source that would represent your services or the information you share with the others. …
