Magnum IQ Offers Help with Homework

In this modern day and age, education has become almost an obsession with our governments. Targets, exam success, value added, raising standards etc is all we ever hear. In the UK schools where GCSE results are below the accepted norm are to be closed down. More and more pressure is being put on the schools , the parents and inevitably on the pupils themselves. In my experience as a teacher many school children are totally stressed out by this competitive approach. However most of them have no option but to get caught up in it.

So what can we do to help our children?? Many parents are of the misguided opinion that education is purely an "in school" activity and they take no part in their children's education at home. The other extreme of this of course are the parents who push their children to do more and more work so that they achieve, achieve, achieve. These are often the children who are the most stressed out as they have their parents ambitions to live up to as well as their own.

The parents who take the middle road are more likely to have successful well balanced children, who understand the importance of a good education and good results without the undue pressure. These parents are the most likely to help their children in a positive and supportive way ensuring they get extra help, either from themselves or from an outside agency.

In this modern world where both parents are working, it is often the case that they struggle to find the time to help their children, but they are probably financially more able to pay for private tuition. The problem arises then of having to fetch and carry their children to wherever the tuition takes place.

Imagine being able to get the help your child needs at the push of a button in your own living room, for a fraction of the normal cost of tuition!! This is what Magnum IQ can offer you. By utilizing innovative internet video and audio technology they have created a real 1 on 1 tutoring scenario online. The student and their tutor will share an interactive digital whiteboard and can work together on the problem in real time.

Even though the tuition isn't physically sitting face to face, a live one on one environment is experienced. This makes personal tutoring offered by MIQ highly effective and best of all convenient

Fathers more involved in their children's lives and their education

PARENTING
Focused fathers

Dads make time to step out of the office and into kids' lives
By Aliana Ramos - aramos@thesunnews.com

No longer is the image of father someone whose primary job is to earn the bacon.
Now fathers are also uncles, brothers, grandfathers, stay-at-home dads, single dads or busy married men who change diapers, tend to children and pick them up after school.


"Thirty percent would rather have more time with family than promotion. They are sensing time is not endless. And, I think in some cases, their lack of relationship with their father is coming to play," said parenting expert Jim Rogers of Still Learning, Inc., a Surfside Beach-based national program with workshops, seminars and private conferences on a number of topics including parent and family life/management skills.

"We see more stay-at-home dads, and they're proud of it. It used to be the males take pride in saying 'I have a new job,' 'I have a new car.' Their sense of self was based on their accomplishments. Now, I'm hearing men bragging to others about their kids," he said.

Socastee resident and divorced father of three Brian Bailey, 43, can relate.
Bailey used to be a pastry chef for a major hotel chain. He worked late hours during the week, holidays and weekends.


"I think it's a large reason why my family now is not together. It's hard to be there for your family when, well, you're never really there," he said.

Now, he works for a landscaping company trimming and cutting trees.

"I have better hours. I have my weekends free to spend time with my kids," said Bailey, who sees his two youngest children every weekend. His oldest daughter, 21, lives in Charleston, W.Va.

"I think if you love someone, that's what you do. When you have kids, they are part of your lives forever,"said Bailey about making sure he has a relationship with his children.

Busy working dad Gary Blake, 40, of Myrtle Beach spends about 70 hours a week running his contracting business.

"It's hard to spend a lot of time with your kids when you work a lot of hours. It's tough not being there a lot. But I work hard to give them the other things they need," said Blake, who has a son and a daughter.

But owning his own business gives Blake the flexibility to take a few hours off to coach his son's all-star baseball team. During training, the team does two sessions a day, one in the morning and one at night. He also helps his daughter, who plays volleyball, train.

"The hardest thing is trying to make sure they can be all that they can be."

Myrtle Beach resident Ryan Keefe, 24, also understands the importance of spending time with his son, Caden Keefe, 2.

Toting two fishing poles, Keefe talks about fatherhood as Caden runs circles around him.
"As soon as I get off work, I pick him up at day care and we spend time together. We do outdoor activities like go to the beach or play sports. I read to him every night," said Keefe.


"I wouldn't say it's easy. But there are no negatives with him. It's just the love that he gives back and watching him grow up, which is too fast," Keefe said.

Dionne Rice, 40, of the Choppee section of Georgetown County describes himself as a "housemale."

He is a single, stay-at-home dad whose days are filled with cooking, doing laundry, running to doctor's appointments and checking homework for his four sons ranging in age from 5 to 15. He and his ex-wife are also working on a custody agreement for weekend privileges and visits to see his 3-year-old daughter.

His 11-year-old son Brandon has type-1 diabetes, and Rice travels to Florence or Charleston about once a month to take him to the doctor.

Rice checks in daily with the school nurse to make sure his son's insulin levels are healthy and buys sugar-free foods for the whole family. He also has a 13-year-old son with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

He is able to manage it all with the help of the Father-to-Father project in Georgetown County. He gets counseling services for his sons and for himself. The agency has also assisted him with developing a monthly budget. He buys in bulk and pays important bills first, while putting all extra money aside in a savings account.

"It's hard, but all you need is structure," Rice said.

Mass media, personal experience, education and advances in parenting education have helped to shift the male perspective on fatherhood, Rogers said. Fathers are starting to understand the vital role they play in their children's lives.

Ed Martin, 71, a former steelworker, once worked about 60 hours a week while helping his wife raise five children.

His wife was responsible for cooking, laundry, feeding the kids and helping with homework, while Martin focused on attending all the children's sporting events.

"Things are definitely turning around again. About 10 years ago fathers did less. From what I see now, they are doing more and paying more attention," Martin said.

"My father was too busy to come to my games, and I made up my mind that no matter what, I would be there for my kids and grandchildren. And so far, I have," said Martin.

Children who live absent their biological fathers are, on average, at least two times more likely to be poor, to use drugs, to experience educational, health, emotional and behavioral problems, to be victims of child abuse, and to engage in criminal behavior than their peers who live with their married, biological or adoptive parents, according to the National Fatherhood Initiative.

But it's not just an attitude change that's happening, sometimes it's also who is taking care of children that's changing.

Parents now have to juggle their time even more. Whether they are single parents or two busy working parents, it is impossible for them to be all things to their children and external help is welcomed by all. Magnum IQ offers parents the help they need to ensure that their children have sufficient help at home with their school work. Interactive onine sessions and use of a interactive whiteboard for Homework Help takes the pressure of busy parents who are struggling to manage to cope with the numerous calls on their time.

Magnum IQ is a cost effective way to provide the extra 1-1 tuition each child needs and can be tailored to their specific areas of interest or difficulty.

For parents who want to be more hands on with homework help, but who maybe don't have the knowledge or expertise to help their children, they can be involved in the sessions with Magnum IQ and become a real help and support to their children

MiQ can help those who are home schooled

A recent ruling from the 2nd Appellate State Court in Los Angeles has deemed it compulsory for all teachers of home schooled children in California to have state teaching credentials. It has been estimated that this affects the home schooling of approximately 166,000 children in California, currently home educated by parents who do not have credentialed status. The ruling caused such statewide outrage that the court has agreed to rehear the case, with oral arguments scheduled to be heard in June.

Forcing everyone that home schools their child to have credentialed status is not going to have any real beneficial impact on the education of the child. If this ruling stands, all it effectively constitutes is an administrative hoop for someone to jump through, with no other guarantees that the home tutor is actually delivering a decent home education. What really needs to happen is a system of actively monitoring the home education of the child, to ensure that they are getting high quality education regardless of the credentialed status of the person home schooling them.

Magnum IQ is well placed to assist in the education of these young people who are being home schooled. Fully trained tutors are online 24/7 to help with homework or to offer specialized lessons in particular subject areas. Not only is this an excellent resource but it is available as and when you want it. No need to pre-book an expensive home tutor. Just the click of a button and the interactive learning channels are there at your disposal.

Home schooling has never been easier than with the help of Magnum IQ

Homework Help



Homework Raises Standards of Achievement

The Department for Children Schools and Families in the UK are advocating that well organised homework can play a vital role in raising standards of achievement.

"A good, well-managed homework programme helps children and young people to develop the skills and attitudes they will need, for successful lifelong learning. Homework also supports the development of independent learning skills, and provides parents with an opportunity to take part in their children's education." read more

Many parents, though keen to get involved in their children's education by helping with homework, do not always have the skills to do this effectively. Many parents will struggle with the new approaches and teaching methods in many subjects and can sometimes do more harm than good. Some parents may not have the skills to teach how to do it and may resort to doing the work for the children. Teaching is a specialst skill and should be done by experienced and well trained teachers and tutors. Of course there are always the exceptions that prove the rule and many parents who choose to home school their children may well be natural teachers with a gift for imparting knowledge.

But whatever category you may fall into I am sure all parents will welcome the help of an experienced fully trained
teacher, especially if they are available at the click of a button. Magnum IQ offers such a service.

At the click of the computer button you can tap into
live interactive homework help for your child, using the advanced technology provided by the interactive whiteboard and video communication.

Magnum IQ are ahead of the game and they not only offer the
homework help but they also offer live sessions in all subjects sutable for everyone from aged 5 to age 100.

Online Education Can Help Students with Special Educational Needs



School advocates distance learning

Founder says special needs can be met via Web

By JAMES HAUG
REVIEW-JOURNAL

Wayne Tanker, the founder of Delta Academy (formerly know as West Care Charter school) is betting that instruction by Internet will be a good way reach to kids who have given up on formal education or whose lives are too complicated for an 8-to-3 school day.

Many of these students have self-esteem issues. A 16-year-old, for instance, might have seventh-grade math ability, but doesn't want to go to class with 12- and 13-year-olds.

Students with learning disabilities often lose a large part of their day in transportation to specialized schools far from their home. Their time might be better spent at home in front of a computer.

But Tanaka realizes online education "is cutting edge."

"Distance learning is the new frontier of education," he said at the Thursday night meeting of the Clark County School Board.

Comments such as these are becoming more commonplace as people begin to realize that online education is a very feasible option for many students. Magnum IQ believe that this is the growth industry of the 21st century and indeed of this decade. Not only will schools in our various countries be utilizing this type of technology, but parents will be picking up on this thought process and will be looking for online help for their children at home. Online education will supersede private home tuition. It is not only more cost effective but it is also time saving, convenient, and it is available at the click of a button 24/7.

Magnum IQ will be available for anyone to access after the full launch in September but in the mean time you can become part of a team that is building a future business in online education and having the privilege of experiencing this cutting edge technology first hand.

Online education is here to stay. Be ahead of the game. Visit the MIQ web site to see what they have to offer.

MiQ TUTOR offers a solution

Do your children ever experience frustration with their homework??

Having been a teacher for many years I have come across my fair share of homework problems. Problems ranging from children crying and not being able to sleep because they couldn't complete their homework to parents who blatantly do their children's homework for them. If a child hasn't fully understood the work they are being asked to complete it is virtually impossible for them to even attempt to do their homework.

Many parents are left wondering what to do. How can they help?

The top 5 reasons that parents fail to get the appropriate help for their children are :-

  1. They can't afford expensive tutors, especially with more than one child
  2. They can't fit in the tutoring with their hectic schedule
  3. They don't understand what their child's needs are
  4. They are unable to find the time themselves to help their children
  5. They just can't make the commitment required
This is a global problem.

Education is becoming more and more demanding and homework schedules are here to stay.

Do you think that an an online interactive learning channels may be the answer to their prayers?

Magnum IQ gives Children the Competitive Edge

So How does MiQ Work

The whole concept of MiQ is so revolutionary that many people I talk to just don't "get it". I have had several people say to "oh yes such and such a site offers online education". And yes they are right, there are many sites that offer education online.

But what most people fail to realize is that MiQ is using cutting edge technology. They are utilizing innovative internet video and audio technology to create a 1-on-1 tutoring scenario online. The student and the tutor will share an interactive digital whiteboard and will be able to work on the problems together in real time. Even though they may not be physically sitting face to face a live one on one environment is experienced. This makes personal tutoring highly effective and best of all - convenient.

Tutors are there to assist children with difficult homework assignments, a class project or just extra practice on a new skill.

This is just one of the ways MiQ will operate. What better way to give your child that competitive edge

Why are American Students Still at Risk

Ed in O8 is an American organization that has been set up to raise awareness because they believe that American students are losing out, and are not being prepared to be successful adults. Here is a brief excerpt from the report A Stagnant Nation: Why American Students are Still at Risk which shows the lack of progress in the school reform movement since the 1983 release of the National Commission on Excellence in Education’s letter to the American people, A Nation at Risk.

“Our schools have been under-performing for 25 years,” said Roy Romer, the chairman of ED in 08. “America is slipping farther and farther behind the rest of the world academically because we have been unable to enact meaningful reforms or substantially improve student learning in the last quarter century. We know that the American public supports education reform – the missing piece is leadership – on national and local levels. Without vigorous national leadership, states and schools cannot significantly improve their antiquated education systems. Students in our nation’s schools deserve a robust and world-class education that offers them a pathway towards the American dream.”
A Nation at Risk, published on April 26th 1983, warned that American schools were being eroded by a “rising tide of mediocrity.” The report was one of the first comprehensive assessments of the American education system and explained that America’s once unchallenged schools were being overtaken by its international competitors, and America’s weak education system was undermining American prosperity, security and society. A Nation at Risk documented deep problems in America’s academic standards and expectations, the time allocated for learning and the quality of the teaching force.
ED in 08’s report, A Stagnant Nation: Why American Students Are Still at Risk, explains that few of the National Commission on Excellence in Education’s recommendations related to time, teaching and standards, have yet to be enacted. The report also says that America’s economic future remains gravely at risk....."

It is thought that some students have fallen too far behind and it is too late for them to catch up. Longer school days, better teachers and higher standards are all featured as part of the way forward.

The fact that many students have fallen so far behind and that 70% of 8th graders are not proficient in reading is of great concern to the American nation.

With figures such as these it is all the more important that these students have access to ongoing continuing education, if they are to be employable in the future.

Dare to Live Without Limits: How to Unlock Your Mind to Attract All You

Want

Limitations are a brick wall. Breaking through them is the key to accomplishing more than you

ever thought possible. We erroneously assume we are limited by external factors that are beyond

our control. In actuality, our limitations are self-imposed. You will learn the same secrets utilized

by highly successful people to break free of the chains that restrict you.

4 Secrets to Becoming a STAR: How to Attain Success in Your Personal &

Professional Life

It is amazing how uncomfortable individuals get when asked about their greatest strengths, their

passions, their dreams. They are unsure how to answer the question. They may stammer, offer

up some modest goals, or begin to list off their less-than-desirable qualities. How would you

answer that question? Have you considered it before? One of the secrets to personal and

professional success hinges on your ability to identify your weaknesses and strengths. Another

secret involves tapping into your dreams and discovering your potential to make it a reality. Take

a look at the successful people around you and you'll find these four characteristics in all of them.

The Power Within

Your mind can be directed to bring you the life that you want without having to settle or suffer.

Only thoughts and attitude differentiate success from failure. There are many definitions of

success, but only one definition of failure: Giving Up. Winners never quit and quitters never win.

Learn how to use the power of your mind to bring all of your dreams to reality.

Setting and Achieving Goals and Breaking Through Limitations

Goals are essential for making progress in your job or business. But goals are difficult, if not

impossible to attain when you have limitations that impede your progress. Most limitations are

self-imposed and can be overcome. You will learn how to identify goals and create a workable

plan for their achievement. You will also discover how limitations are formed along with practical,

simple techniques for breaking through your limitations in order to achieve all that you want.

Relationships Rock: Networking 101
