This class has been so practical. I am really enjoying the "put it to use" today aspect. So many Social Media folks talk in platitudes. It is nice to have a "how to".
Verified Student
I have been working with social media on several levels (for my church, youth football league, high school football team, my employer) for a while now, but through this class I am enjoying framing and organizing the process for each of them.
Verified Student
Many, many thanks for your class. It was just what I needed to get me started both increasing and tracking the social media efforts by our organization. The nice thing is that I'm in the driver's seat. That's the scary thing too, but it is less scary now having completed your class.

With millions of pages already on the Web and more posted online every day, getting your Web site noticed isn’t easy. When students ask me what they can do to increase traffic to their sites, I encourage them to learn all they can about Internet marketing. In this lesson, you’ll receive a brief introduction to the Internet, learn the difference between e-commerce and e-business, and explore different types of business sites on the Web.

The terms "Web site" and "Web presence" can be used interchangeably, but there's a subtle difference. In this lesson, you’ll learn how to establish a Web presence. In order to do that, you’ll need to understand your goals and your customers’ needs and interests, accurately identify your target audience, and establish a market position that makes you stand out from the crowd. We'll go over how to do all of that in this lesson.

In today's lesson, you’ll discover the importance of selecting the right domain name for your site. You’ll also find out how search engines work. And you’ll understand how you can use what you learn to drive visitors to your Web site.

High-quality content will keep visitors at your site longer and encourage them to return more often. In this lesson, you’ll learn the importance of helpful, informative, educational, entertaining, or useful content. You’ll also discover how search engines use the following factors to determine ranking in response to a query—text viewable on the screen, code not viewable on the screen, and external factors.

In this lesson, you’ll discover the elements that make up "The Marketing Mix"—the four Ps. You’ll learn how the elements of product, price, place, and promotion relate to each other and to your target audience.

Today, you’ll learn how to develop a message that will cause the members of your target audience to take the action you want. And you’ll become acquainted with online strategies you can use to advertise your Web site, products, and services.

Today you'll learn how to develop ads that inspire your target audience to take the action you want. And you'll understand how to advertise your web site using search engine (PPC) advertising, banner advertising, and more.

In spite of the growing number of junk e-mail messages filling in-boxes, e-mail is a thriving medium. So it’s important to understand how you can use e-mail marketing to keep current customers and acquire new ones. In today's lesson, we’ll examine ways that you can use e-mail to promote your business.

If you want visitors to spend more than 30 seconds at your Web site, you'll need to make it interesting, entertaining, and informative. The factor that causes visitors to spend more time at your site is called "stickiness." In this lesson, you’ll learn the advantages of building a sticky site. You’ll also learn how to use content to make your Web site sticky.

In the previous lesson, you learned to build site stickiness through the use of content. In this lesson, you’ll learn to build site stickiness through community. You’ll also become acquainted with synchronous and asynchronous tools you can use to develop a community experience for your visitors.

The last element you can use to build site stickiness is commerce—in this case, e-commerce. You’ll learn how to use commerce to keep visitors at your site longer and return more often. In this lesson, you’ll become acquainted with technology you can use to create an online store, including online catalogs, shopping cart software, and online payment systems.

In our final lesson, you’ll have the opportunity to pull together all of the information you gathered during this course to complete an Internet marketing plan. To help you do this, I’ll provide you with an Internet marketing plan checklist and samples of the following documents: Internet marketing plan outline, a calendar, and a budget spreadsheet.

Prepare for a career in the health services industry by learning medical terminology in a memorable and enjoyable fashion.

This course teaches medical terminology from an anatomical approach. Root terms are divided by each body system. The origin, a combined form, and an example of non-medical everyday usage is provided for each root term. Word Associations are provided as a learning tool. Unusual and interesting information is provided in regards to each term. Root terms are combined with prefixes and suffixes as your learning will culminate in the interpretation of several paragraphs of medical notes.

Courses are delivered to you through expertly executed lessons, online instruction and interaction with like-minded students. Our courses are designed to deliver all of the benefits of studying in a classroom whilst giving you the flexibility to study at a time and place to suit your needs. You can access your classroom 24/7 from any device with an internet connection.

This course has a 3 month duration. You'll complete comprehensive lessons, quizzes and assignments before submitting your final exam at the end of the course to achieve your certificate. Courses must be completed within the 3 month access period.

Welcome to the first lesson of medical terminology! We'll begin the course by exploring root terms, which represent the main meaning of a combined medical term. A combined medical term consists of a root, a prefix, and/or a suffix. As we progress through each lesson of this course, you'll see that we proceed by "body system," and in this first lesson, we'll go over root terms that are associated with the musculoskeletal system, so we'll be talking a lot about the muscles, bones, joints, and tendons of the body in this lesson.

In today's lesson, you'll learn a variety of terminology relating to the integumentary and digestive systems. The integumentary system includes the skin, connective tissues, and some loosely associated structures such as nails and teeth. When we discuss the digestive system, you'll learn medical terminology relating to the digestive tract from the mouth, to the pharynx, to the esophagus, and so on, all the way out to the exterior of the body.

In this lesson, we'll go over terminology related to the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. The cardiovascular system includes the heart, arteries, veins, and blood, while the respiratory system includes the lungs and assorted chest structures.

Today's topic areas are the urinary and reproductive systems. When we go over the urinary system, you'll learn terminology related to the kidneys, bladder, urine, and even some chemistry terms. When we go over the reproductive system, you'll learn root terms that refer to both male and female anatomical structures.

In this lesson, we'll finish up our discussion about root terms. You'll learn root terms that are associated with the neurosensory system, including nerves, the eyes, ears, brain, and spinal cord. Then we'll begin doing something a little different—at the end of the lesson, we'll do a little review session to help you remember all of the root terms that you've learned up to this point.

In today's lesson, you'll learn about prefixes and suffixes that are common in medicine and start with the letters A through H. Starting today, we won't be going through the word associations that we did in previous lessons. By now, you'll find that you can recognize many of these terms as they're used in our normal, everyday language.

In this lesson, we'll continue to progress through the prefixes and suffixes commonly used in medical terminology. Our objective for today is to identify the common medical prefixes and suffixes that begin with the letters I through O.

Today, we'll complete our tour through the alphabetical listings of the most common prefixes and suffixes used in medical terminology by focusing on prefixes and suffixes that begin with the letters P through Z. You'll find that there are many more terms that medical professionals use less often, and you'll even discover that sometimes a root that you already know is used as a prefix or suffix.

In previous lessons, you learned about common prefixes and suffixes. In today's lesson, we'll study specific prefixes and suffixes that pertain to color. Color is used quite a bit in the medical field because it helps everyone to describe various signs and symptoms. In this lesson, we'll also go over medical abbreviations that are specific to the various occupations and titles of the medical industry. Your assignment in this lesson will change a little as your research becomes a bit more challenging.

The medical community uses an abundance of abbreviations. Some medical facilities don't allow them, but you should still learn the meanings of the most common abbreviations so you'll know them when you see them. For this lesson, we'll study the abbreviations that start with the letters A through R. Your assignment for this lesson will be a bit different—you're going to find words in a medical note that you can replace with the abbreviations that you learned in the lesson.

In this lesson, we'll finish our study of medical abbreviations as we explore the abbreviations that begin with letters S through Z. We'll also go over specific abbreviations that refer to hospital areas, laboratory tests, chemistries, and medical symbols. In today's assignment, it's up to you to find the abbreviations that correctly relate to each sentence in a medical note.

Here in our final lesson, it's time to put everything you've learned together. We'll look at our roots, prefixes, and suffixes, and see how they create combined medical terms from body system to body system. You'll also learn some directional terms that are commonly used in medicine. You'll find that your assignment for this lesson provides you the opportunity to decipher a complete medical note.

Blame it on fairy tales. Many people believe that if you meet the right person, your life will be an unending series of blissful experiences. The truth is that no relationship can ever be conflict-free because people change over time and every relationship goes through adversity. Instead of looking for the mythical "perfect" person, we all need to realize that every relationship is different and can work as long as both people agree to cooperate. Maintaining a relationship is a skill that anyone can improve, and in this lesson, you'll start to learn how.

People often think, "If I can just meet the right person, I'll have the perfect relationship." Meeting the right person is important, but knowing how to <I>stay in love</I> with that person matters more. In Lesson 2, you'll find out about the seven stages that every relationship goes through. Knowing these stages will help you to predict problems and defuse them.

In every relationship, there's a "we" that defines the couple, but there are also two "I's" that define each partner. If a relationship focuses too much on "we," one or both partners can feel smothered. If a relationship focuses too much on "I," then you risk having less of a relationship and more of a casual friendship at best. In Lesson 3, we'll explore this balancing act. You'll find out how&nbsp;you and your partner can&nbsp;each&nbsp;fulfill your needs and still have the freedom to grow individually.

Disagreements are part of every relationship, but how we handle those disagreements determines the quality of that relationship. Instead of avoiding issues or constantly arguing with no resolution, you can learn the rules of fair fighting. You can even use a problem to improve your relationship! Today you'll learn how.

So many marriages end in divorce. Even in some relationships that seem intact, cheating and adultery occur. Yet if you're in a relationship, you no longer have to wish and hope that you'll be one of the lucky ones. By recognizing the warning signs and taking action, you can keep your relationship healthy.

While fair fighting will help you confront problems, how can you defuse and resolve conflict <I>after</I> it occurs? In this lesson, we'll explore repairing a damaged relationship, dealing with grudges, and rebuilding trust.

Too many people believe that a relationship should survive and thrive all by itself. However, just like a car, a relationship needs periodic care and maintenance. Today we'll talk about how to make these tune-ups effective and fun.

Nothing can elevate or upset a relationship more than sex. In many relationships, it's the pinnacle of emotional intimacy. However, sex can also be superficial and purely physical, lacking any emotional closeness. In this lesson, you'll learn how to make sex enhance, not disrupt, your closeness with your partner.

Nothing can be more devastating than when your partner cheats on you. Beyond the sense of betrayal, there are the conflicting emotions of inadequacy, abandonment, and loss. Yet adultery or cheating can be overcome or even prevented. By understanding the source of adultery, you can either avoid it in the first place or withstand the emotional turmoil that cheating can bring.

No relationship exists in a vacuum. During the Honeymoon stage, your relationship seems to exist solely for the two of you. However, as the relationship matures, you have to juggle work requirements as well as your relationships with relatives, friends, and possibly even children. A relationship triangle happens when your relationship involves more than two people, or when money issues or other problems outside the relationship demand attention. Relationship triangles add a new dynamic because you now have two people involved with a third person or situation, which can cause confusion and conflict . . . so in Lesson 10, I'll guide you through them.

While many people worry about marital infidelity, they often overlook the equally serious problem of <I>financial infidelity</I>, where people lie or deceive their partners about their spending habits. The problem isn't necessarily not having enough money . . . it's the way that you and your partner handle money. When one person spends while the other person saves, those conflicting values can cause major problems. Fortunately, with the right skills and knowledge, you can deal with any money issues and keep your relationship happy, healthy, and loving&mdash;regardless of how much money you might have!

Not every relationship is made in heaven. Of course, getting rid of a person rarely gets rid of the problem. Today we'll talk about reasons to end a relationship and reasons to hold on.
