So many of us have them . . . those kids who have that overwhelming desire to work, to produce, to make money. Is it logical for our middle school and high school students to start their own business? You betcha. Especially with SchoolhouseTeachers.com as a resource. Dana Susan Beasley shares a massive amount of information in her course, Becoming an Internet Entrepreneur. It is obvious that Dana is passionate about sharing her experience and her knowledge, and students can benefit greatly from all of the things she teaches in this course. Dana guides students through the process in a step-by-step fashion. She is currently discussing writing a slogan, keyword research, developing a design strategy, and learning the basics of photography. If you have just joined SchoolhouseTeachers.com or just found out about this course, it is never too late to begin. All of the lessons are archived, and none are live; you don’t have to worry that you’ve missed anything. While students are working to develop their business and thinking about advertising, they might want to also join Lisa Duffy for a course in Logic. Students will learn about various fallacies that can be found in advertising and the faulty reasoning behind them. They can become smarter consumers and honest and trustworthy producers. These two courses can work hand in hand to help your child succeed.
