Welcome to My LVS Blog

February 22nd, 2008

My name is Stephanie Reid-Taylor, I am an instructor and a distance learner. I received my bachelor’s degree from Franklin University (Columbus, Ohio), and my MBA from Ashland University. About 40% of the courses that I have taken were online from both institutions and I enjoyed them very much. Distance Learning is rapidly transforming the education landscape. Distance Learning can be a great and convenient way to further your education, especially for working adults with families, and other commitments that keep you from attending the traditional classroom. The Skills for Learning in an Information Age course will provide valuable information and assistance to anyone, especially first time students who  plan to pursue a college degree on-line and will also offer the basic skills needed to become successful students.
