AskOneSelf.com helps expand alternative education options.
September 9, 2004 -- According to the National Center for Education Statistics, policymakers, educators, and parents have many questions about alternatives to the traditional public school system. While these questions are being investigated, AskOneSelf.com is offering a one stop shop for alternative education options. This new niche-market search engine is dedicated to supporting alternative solutions for planetary well-being. Through the portal, a wide variety of educational programs can be found including charter schools, home-schooling options, Waldorf schools, distance learning degrees, alternative degrees in consciousness studies, interdisciplinary degrees, and various kinds of certifications.
Sociologist and author, Catherine Schultz, owner of the portal in partnership with SGA/Jumpat.com has both interdisciplinary masters and doctoral degrees along with a 12 year background teaching in alterative and contemporary universities. She has taught at the International Center for Studies in Creativity at Buffalo State College, the CAPE program of Shaw University in Asheville, N.C., University of NC at Asheville and University of SC at Spartanburg. Dr. Schultz explains, "I wanted to create a search engine that would support and expand the capacity of alternative schools and educational programs to spread the word about their offerings. I personally gained a great deal from an interdisciplinary approach to education as well as a learner-centered approach through distance learning for my doctoral degree. The Latin root of the word ‘education' is ‘educare' meaning ‘to bring out that which is within'. I am impressed with so many new options for education that seem to coming on to the public sphere dedicated to such an intention. The patriarchal models geared towards the passive learner rather than the active social learner are slowly dying out. I believe one option for assisting these new models in education to make their mark is AskOneSelf.com which supports providers to showcase their offerings on the web, and gives people searching for alternatives one central place to go to for answers. With this portal, alternative education providers can themselves become educated for free on how to market themselves over the net, and purchase banners, pay-per-click bids, popunders and other internet marketing options at a significant discount. It opens up a whole new avenue for alternative education that has never existed before."
The alliance that Dr. Schultz has created with SGA/Jumpat.com to create AskOneSelf.com is key to this opportunity for expanding alternative education. In 2002, SGA/Jumpat.com created the niche-specific search engines for lightning fast, precise search results, wholesale discounted marketing tools, and educational tools for anyone to be successful with on-line marketing. Every alternative educator/organization who joins AskOneSelf.com will be provided with a significant amount of free educational tools including audio courses, as well as significantly discounted prices for items like banners, popunders and pay-per-click bidding capacity compared with other search engine portals and internet marketing options.
