ACCELERATED LEARNING AND LEARNING STYLES

Unless a miracle occurs, I will have to cancel my five-session teleclass program on Learning Styles which is suppose to start Oct. 15^th. Two people have dropped out and there isn’t enough of a critical mass.

This must be the time of year for True Color Workshops. In a four-week period, I will have delivered an introductory session to National Defence, Child Care Providers and Educators, and Project Mangers.

ACCELEARTED LEARNING AND LEARNING STYLES

I have confirmed the five-session teleclass program entitled Leveraging Accelerated Learning and Learning Styles in Your Coaching to begin Mondays, October 15^th at 11 am. Subscribers will get a 33% discount. I have been doing a lot of research on various assessment tools and on-line accessibility. The groundwork has been laid for the Assessment Program to be offered later this year. The Learning Styles Teleclass Program will be a prerequisite, as we will cover a number of related issues.

It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.

================ TECHNICAL TIP ===============

CLEAN DISK 3

Besides running a current virus protection, there are two other important things to do regularly. One, defragment your drive and two free up disk space.

Clean Disk is a free user-friendly utility designed to free up disk space by deleting temporary directories and other files, such as leftover, unneeded setup files. It is designed not to interfere with Windows or any another program. Clean Disk can also be updated easily; it has a built-in feature called Live Update.

It is easy to download but does not put an icon on your desktop – you will have to look under the start menu to begin the program. Beware: When you click on normal clean a message that says WARNING: you can not undelete . . . pops up. It was enough to scare me off for a moment. However, I went ahead and think it is a great program for those of you who do not have a utility package.

Are you getting tired of e-mails about Nostradamus’ or Bill Gate’s predictions, the picture that the tourist took from the World Trade Building or Canadian Praise for American? Then check out both of the sites, which tells you what is and what isn’t a hoax. Guess what? They are all either hoaxes or taken out of context.
