I spent hours going over my classes and teachers that worked with my preferences. My classes are online but I work well over 40 hours a week so I was looking for teachers that allow you to work ahead and stuff. I got a full semester of teachers to fit my needs. I logged on today to check if the semester has been updated and I noticed my US government class was a different number and I have a different teacher. I checked them on rate my professor and they have mostly 1 ratings talking about how they are unprofessional, unorganized, and send wrong information and wrong exams out then give you bad grades for not taking the right exams. 1 if that’s true why are they still here and 2 why wasn’t I notified of a class change? All other classes are full so I can’t even find a different teacher and it’s my last semester for my degree so I can’t just push it off tell the spring or winter as I only have 13 credit hours and need to remain full time.

I’m in my 30’s and I went to community college right out of HS with no idea what I wanted to do. I tried a bunch of different majors and ended up with 100 credits and a 2.15 gpa. I live in Texas and was told at State Universities that due to regulations I would need a 2.75 to be approved into the program (from all credits) and to graduate some schools want a 3.0 from all credits and others want a 3.0 from the last 60 credits. I live by 3 major universities (that I looked at) that have an automatic acceptance with a GPA of 2.0 to 2.25. I’m taking some credits at a Community college to finish my AA degree and to get my GPA up to the 2.25. One class is a retake of a failed class which will help my gpa above the 2.25 but not get it anywhere close to the 2.75. I talked to a few different people and was told to get my BS in math or physics if I wanted to teach middle school math because the math program has no additional requirements to enroll in it and a 2.0 GPA to graduate. But that means all my science and math classes I’ve already taken are too low leveled to transfer in. Another person told me to take a humanities degree like communication or psychology because they have a lower GPA requirement I think one was a 2.5 and then either take a MAT program or alternative certification. Also I live out of district but close enough to do Dallas College BAS early childhood education they require a 2.5 gpa to enroll and a 2.75 gpa to graduate. But they only offer EC-6 general certification, bilingual, or Speds.

My big question is if I want to teach middle school math would it be beneficial to take a longer route to major in math or retake a few classes and get licensed in EC-6 at Dallas College then take the 4-8 math exam afterwords. I wouldn’t be opposed to teaching upper elementary math/science if needed between the licenses. I’m asking also because I’m not knowledgeable about the math field outside of MS/HS teachers and maybe someone else has thoughts on that too.

IKEA USA you need to fix your lack of responsibility for online customer support. Can you explain why no one could refund a mattress return you had over a month. CS responded issues been escalated someone will reach out in a couple of days and no one reached out. Go back to CS sane response. They confirmed the mattress was accepted for return. Over a month. Nothing is done no one reached out. No one could force a digital gift card.

Walk into the store talk to the store and they had no problem issuing the refunds in under 5 minutes. I’m lucky to live close to a store but a lot of customers don’t. This is unacceptable behavior from a billion dollar company.

I’m in the middle of transferring so I can take the BA Education pathway. I looked up Education 1301 2301 and they require in person observation hours. I’m taking online classes because for my job Im out of state for 5 weeks and have a whole week off at home as I travel for work. So during my week home I am able to do observation hours but are they expecting a couple hours a week split over the semester or can I do it all in the same week or two weeks I’m home during the semester? I tried to look up the course syllabus but they are not showing anything about observation hours just the course says they have observation hours.

back in 2019 I was in Elementary education and Special Education dual major and I had completed about 20 hours from Community College (I actually completed way more but that’s what they took) and 22 hours over 2 6 month semesters here at WGU.

I noticed when I pulled my transcript to compare the current class list a lot of the classes I took no longer exist even in idea like psychology for educators. if I come back would you expect most of those classes to fall in line with new classes or would I just be down a lot more credits and have a larger amount of credits to complet? I haven’t talked with readmissions yet but I was just wondering if anyone on here has had experience with this in the past.
