Papers on education
I won the Distinguished Teaching Faculty Award.
An alternative to campus-based universities like Columbia is an online degree. For example, check out the online computer science degrees and information technology degrees at well-known online schools such as the University of Phoenix.
See DirectoryofEducation for a list of the leading online universities and schools offering education in subjects including Business, Technology and Science. The bachelor of science degree demands comprehensive study and leads to a higher level status, while an online associate degree is intended to offer concentrated education in one subject area.
