President Schwarzenegger?

In the Simpson's Movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger is President of the United States. This would seem to indicate that cartoon civics joins cartoon physics as being outside of reality, since he was born in Thal, Austria and (according to Section I, Article II of the US Constitution) is ineligible to hold that office.

Much talk has circulated over the years regarding a Constitutional Amendment that would eliminate the requirement that Presidential candidates be "natural born citizens," but that process could take so long that Arnold could be dead and buried before it comes to pass.

I have an alternate idea that could make him eligible to be President Schwarzenegger right now...

Social Learning Takes to the Internet

Fort Worth, Texas (August 30, 2007) – Now, College-Cram.com introduces its own social learning... Scores of social networking sites help students connect for social and entertainment value, but College-Cram.com realizes that students also need to do well in school. That's why their student tutorial website has incorporated social learning into its framework.

"You can create and share notes, connect with other students in study groups, and learn while sitting in your dorm or coffee shop? I wish we had this when I was in school!" is the most often heard reaction to the site's new approach. According to one student's comment wall post, "[College-Cram] now has awesome advantages and thanks for having this site, it makes going to school easier!"

So what is a social learning website? According to Brian Shannon, CEO of College-Cram.com: "Social learning focuses on the learning that occurs within a social context. It considers that people learn from one another, not just in a vacuum. College-Cram, which has for years offered study resources for students around the world, now boasts a full-featured social networking core that brings social learning to our students."

"Facebook, Myspace, and other social networks appeal to students, but they are not educational. We haven't seen another site like College-Cram that is educational AND was built specifically for students," says VP of Operations Rudy Lopes. "Add to that our extensive Cramlet library and you have a winning combination ripe for success."

The College-Cram.com library has grown since 2004 to serve thousands of students worldwide. It includes over 800 Cramlets™, tutorials, quizzes, and study sheets that help students get better grades in less time. Students (and instructors) can also share their own presentations, outlines, and notes in their "notebook" and form study groups without geographic boundaries.

Social networking sites have become staples in the student experience. College-Cram can help ensure that learning will remain a staple as well. After all, remaining in school is a key part of the student experience, isn't it?

College-Cram.com is a free online social learning resource with communities organized by subject area. College courses usually cover 100 or more concepts, but each Cramlet™ from College-Cram.com covers just one concept and can be completed in less than five minutes. Get better grades in less time at College-Cram.com.
