Tips for Unemployed/Underemployed, students&teachers Pt.1of2

The problem of unemployment and underemployment is facing Americans and citizens of other countries. The media reports a global recession that is not painting a promising future. Hopelessness is being experienced by many with college degrees, as well as those with no high school diploma or GED. The closing of schools, college programs, and work training programs would lead us to believe that teachers are being laid-off but contrary to this belief teachers are not experiencing the unemployment blues as much as adult students. A major research study from the U.S. Department of Labor reveals that teachers under public school systems are not facing severe unemployment rates as many had thought. Therefore, we ask teachers, especially college faculty, to use their wisdom and show empathy and compassion for students and parents who may be dealing with finding jobs, trying to make schedules fit, and pay for tuition and books in this economy.

Managing School & Work w/ Illness,Disability&Death Pt.3of4

Let’s discuss the “label of disabled” and what this really means to the millions of people around the world, specifically Veterans in America, with disabilities. How much can you accomplish at school and work with your present mental and/or physical abilities? Some may say they have no abilities since losing sight or hearing, limbs, or cognitive (thinking & learning) functions. However, we have stories that will tell you something different. The diagnosis of diabetes, learning disabled, cancer, coronary and so many more non-visible (dis)-abilities make it difficult to manage school and work absenteeism because others cannot see what’s going on and empathize. You have strength to carry on and we will find it together.

What Do You Value (school, work, family,money,etc)?Pt 3 of 3

No one argue that our basic needs must be taken care first before we can make decisions! This is the first value every person recognizes. It is more complicated when we must provide the basic needs for another, especially our children or family members who need our support. Therefore, providing basic food, shelter, clothing, etc., must be considered for ourselves as well as others, before we choose the things we want, such as college or increased job responsibilities for better pay.

This episode will enlighten many of us to carefully choose our course of action.

What Do You Value (school, work, family,money,etc)?Pt 1of3

Many of us are familiar with goal setting and the importance of writing them down to review as often as possible. However, we must remind ourselves that we develop our goals around what we value. We prioritize our goals based on what is most valuable to us. We also make time for our goals based on what we value as most critical to do or complete. Join the discussion with White Apple Institute’s staff of students, teachers, counselors and other invited guests as we explore value systems.

Are You Ready for College or Change? Part Two of Two

Many of us are afraid of change that we have no control of even when we know it is going to happen, every second to everyone. However, we become even more afraid when we make the choice to change our present life course by entering college, a new job, or any new relationship. White Apple Institute has invited special guest authors to share ways to manage the stress associated with change. This show is especially dedicated to veterans with disabilities who must go through numerous changes in addition to the norm. You will not want to miss this very unique discussion. Call to participate live this Saturday morning or 10-11am or hear this or previous episodes at http://blogtalkradio.com/student2teacher . Be sure to tell a friend!

Are You Ready for College or Change? Part One of Two

The staff of White Apple Institute wants you to be well prepared for the changes that will happen in your life. The future ahead may include a return to college a vocational program, or a job training program and these changes will come with their own amount of stress. In addition, many of us must handle CHANGE with family, economics, and health. A person diagnosed with a disability or not has to remember "change is inevitable but growth is optional".
