You have been assigned a research paper.  What do you do???  In this 4 week, 4 unit class, taught by Nita Stone we will learn how to pick a topic, what good references are and how to find them, and how to cite and format your paper.  We will cover starting with an outline or bullet list, writing the first draft, proofreading your paper.  Then we make corrections for the final paper.  Proofread again.  We will write a short 2-5 page research paper over the 4 week course.

I have a Master's and just lack my dissertation for my EDD degree.  I have written many research papers over the course of my educational journey.  This is something that all students need to know for college and high school.

I have a Master of Arts in Teaching and Learning with Technology and just need to finish my dissertation for my Educational Doctorate in eLearning and Organizational Leadership.  I formally taught English as a Foreign Language to children in China from home.  I love teaching.  
  I have a wide range of interests and hobbies.  I love gardening, sewing, needlework, crafts, singing, reading, and cooking.  I am currently an Arkansas Master Gardener.  I have 2 grown daughters, 3 granddaughters, and 1 grandson.  
  I have been singing and performing since I was 5 years old. I studied voice at Collin County College and Texas Women's University. I have taken private voice lessons and taught vocal coaching for over 15 years.
I was a Sweet Adeline for 15 years. I sang with the 5 time International champion Rich Tone Chorus for 3 years and Texas Harmony for 10 years. I have also worked with 2 new choruses in the Dallas area. I also sang in a quartet called Rambunxious for 3 years.
  I have been a sub teacher in the public schools for over 17 years.  I sub 2 days a week currently.  I have tutored all subjects and grades. I love reading and read a book each month.  One of my favorite subjects is history.  I love reading about history and the lessons we can learn.  I love to learn about the different states and countries on our wonderful planet.
