Online Learning - What have I learned?

Want to be a Reviewer?

Attention Bloggers & Aspiring Journalists

 

Time4Learning is a new online educational program.  I am inviting you to review our system in your blogs, in your parent or church forums, in group newsletters, or in homeschool support groups. 

 

Terms & Methods.   For participation, you get  a free one month membership (no credit card or payment required) for up to four children.  If you are interested, please send us an email saying where Time4Learning will be reviewed (URL), your full name, phone, and address, and we will provide you details and a free month  to Time4Learning. 

 

Review Suggestions.  We would ask that you focus your review on something of importance and relevence to your homeschooling experience. 

 

For instance, if you have a fourth grader struggling with reading comprehension, a kindergartener ready for more advanced  math,  a homeschooled child with special needs, or are using A Beka math and looking for to supplement it with something a little more fun,  please write the review from that point of view.

 

If you are busy and you are looking for help organizing the lives and education of of four children, talk about how it affects your situation.  This makes the reviews interesting and personal. Avoid being too general, readers can look at our site if they want the general discussion. 

 

Why are we doing this? We are doing this as a way to help get the word out about Time4Learning to  the homeschooling community without resorting to big budget marketing (which frankly, we do not have the budget for anyway).  Much of our growth has been due to word-of-mouth and this seems the best way to build on it.  We are a small family-owned business.  We particularly like working with homeschool families and homeschool support groups.

 

What if you do not have your own blog or website or newsletter? This program is intended to help get the word out about Time4Learning. If you do not belong to a newgroup, have your own blog, website, or newsletter, there might be other ways that we can work together. For instance, if your church, homeschool group, or other relevent group has a website or newsletter, they might, based on your recommendation,  list Time4Learning as a resource (with a link) or publish a short review.

If you want to write a review and do not have a method for publishing, please contact us and we will see if we can suggest a site that will accept a review from you.

 

Is everyone automatically accepted? No, Time4Learning has a limited number of spots and needs to set priorities based on availability. All requests are subject to management review and management reserves the right to limit or restrict the program.

 

What if the reviewer writes a negative review? Well, these things happen. We find that most people really like the Time4Learning program and feel it's a fantastic value. However, most people (including us) have thoughts about how Time4Learning could be even better. The art of reviewing is to help users understand whether the program would be right for them and how it would help while setting expectations realistically.  Some people find that Time4Learning does not fit into their homeschooling experience and they write reviews explaining how and why.  Fair enough.

Feb. 2, 2006 - Homeschool Curriculum Review - my children LOVED....

Posted by Anonymous
"Many children, especially otherwise reluctant learners, love to use computers. My children are no exception and my children absolutely LOVED Time4learning.com. There were many things about this program that impressed me.

The first was that my children begged, I mean literally begged, to do “school on the computer”. writes Meg Grooms, BellaOnline's Homeschooling Editor. Read the full review at: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art38700.asp

Meg concludes: "If you are looking for an online curriculum at an affordable price, Time4Learning is worth a look!"

About Me

I started Time4Learning 5 years ago for home education. Time4Learning provides online interactive curriculum preschool to eighth grade. This is record of lessons learned in the realm of communicating with our members (I have another blog for my technical lessons learned). Hopefully it will keep me on track moving towards a more effective communication, feedback and idea sharing system with my users
