Mugology: Easing Back into the Classroom

 

You know you spend a lot of money on virtual courseware when the company you patronize sends you a free stoneware coffee mug.

Returning to higher education after an absence of over three decades demands a gradual approach. I would be no match for the kids just coming out of high school right now: homework, tests, and a 10-week learning cycle are figments of memory, not skill sets.

The Learning Company – via their Great Courses series – has helped put my brain back into learning mode. I guess my gratitude shows in my spending pattern.
