Learning in comfort - Christian Richardson, Sioux City Journal
Sequestered in a spare bedroom once home to her son, Terry McFarland sat in front of an off-white computer monitor, staring down the work ahead of her as the October sun began setting outside her window. The weeknight's agenda for the 53-year-old college student is the same every evening. She's on the Internet by 6 p.m. contributing to threaded discussions, reading and researching text. She logs off by 10 p.m. This is her classroom. She sets the hours. She chooses her level of comfort. Shoes are optional on this night.
