Online learning is changing education in Montana - Gail Schontzler, Bozeman Daily Chronicle
LeAnne Yenny, a science and math teacher at Sacajawea Middle School in Bozeman, wanted to be a better teacher, so she decided to study for a master's degree at Montana State University. Yenny was able to do it at home, by taking her MSU classes online. Instead of driving to campus, hunting for parking and scurrying to a classroom after a full day of teaching high-energy seventh-graders, she'd sit down quietly at her computer at 10 o'clock at night. "It's fantastic," Yenny, 31, said last week after finishing her master's of science in science education (MSSE), designed for science teachers who want to learn more science and better ways to teach the subject. "I'm so very lucky. "I would probably have had a difficult time getting through the master's degree if I had to come to classes," she said. Still, she found that online classes required discipline, organization and commitment.
