Anyone out there getting their teaching degree online? If so, who with and are you happy with your choice of school? I cannot seem to find but a few online teaching degrees. Thanks Patricia
Hi Patricia, I don't have direct experience in this area, but I hear that Western Governor's University, comes highly regarded. They offer online Bachelor's degrees in Education, including teacher certification. Good Luck! Tom
I earned my Masters of Education from the University of Maryland University College. That school is highly regarded as well...
I completed my basic teacher ed courses from the University of Phoenix. Honestly, I hated them. I hated their learning teams with every ounce of my being. I earned my MSEd from Walden University, but it isn't a teacher-licensure degree. Because of my work through UoP, I already had a license. The Walden degree was just because I wanted to continue my education. I loved every minute of their program. I don't know about WGU. I inquired about one of their programs, and now I get about 10 pieces of junk mail from them a day, on top of all the email they're sending me. They might be a good school, but they seem rather desperate for students if you ask me. -Matt EDIT: Okay, so literally, as soon as I posted this my phone rang and it was WGU. Geez... leave me alone! How many times do I have to tell them I'm not interested anymore... :-(
I got my Masters of Education degree from Grand Canyon University. GCU offers licensure programs at both the undergraduate and graduate level completely online: http://online.gcu.edu/education.php
Thanks Thanks for the reply guys. I have heard many bad things about WGU. Grand Cayon is the one. Thanks Pat
Wgu What information I got is in the link below. It lets students rate schools. WGU did not seem to fair well. But since the school I am now attending was rated very good, and I am not happy there, I think it needs to be taken lightly. I was just really impressed with Grand Canyon.

Possible link to check out Might want to give Rio Salado a look...unsure of the ease of reciprocity, however... http://www.rio.maricopa.edu/ci/visitors_center/education/postBacc/admissionsRequirements.shtml I'll second the quality of GCU - I am 50% finished with an MEd in Curriculum/Instruction with them.
