In the fall I decided to reduce my course hours and go online for several reasons: to focus on teaching, my second job required more hours and my son began his senior year in high school. All of these required more time and attention plus I accepted a graduate assistantship in the Graduate Programs office. There were just not enough hours in the day.  I chose advanced persuasive writing to improve my persuasive writing and the OWI Practicum wrapped up the certificate program.
