Michael Haaren, EditorDear Reader,

Welcome to the November 25, 2007 edition of “The Rat Race Rebellion.”

(Until next week’s issue, you’ll find more screened job leads every day at Rat Race Rebellion.com, at http://www.ratracerebellion.com/job_postings.htm . The jobs listed in this Bulletin are withheld from the website for a full week, to give readers an advantage.)

You’re receiving the Bulletin a bit early today, as I’m ducking out to chaperone my daughter Jazz’ class field trip to the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, DC. It should be interesting, and fun, and I’m looking forward to featuring more Native American entrepreneurs here in the coming year.

In this issue you’ll find an interview with online teaching authority and author Jim Mirabella, a note on what to expect when you apply for a virtual job, and a goodly selection of hirers, including Google, the Educational Testing Service (parent of the SAT, TOEFL, etc.), American Express, and many more.

Rebelliously Yours,

Michael

AN INTERVIEW WITH JIM MIRABELLA, ONLINE TEACHING EXPERT AND AUTHOR OF “MAKE MONEY TEACHING ONLINE”
Online education is a rapidly-growing trend, creating a range of jobs for online teachers. Jim Mirabella, a former US Air Force officer and Air Force Academy graduate, is an expert on the trend, and author of “Make Money Teaching Online: How to Land your First Academic Job, Build Credibility, and Earn a Six-Figure Salary” (hardback,Wiley, 2007).

The book, which we reviewed here in our February 22, 2007 issue (it’s a solid “how-to” for people exploring online teaching), is available at Amazon (price $16.47). You’ll find more on Jim Mirabella at http://www.drjimmirabella.com and on the book at http://www.teachonlinebook.com

We caught up with Jim via email this week.

RRR: Tell us a bit about how you got started in teaching online.

JIM MIRABELLA: I was teaching as an adjunct professor for several local universities, and one of them (Webster University) had just added online courses to their curriculum. Since I was the MBA chair for the Jacksonville campus and had several years experience with them, I was selected to attend the training for the online platform. A few months later, I was given a statistics course and was among the first online instructors in their MBA program. After a couple of semesters’ experience, I started to search for other universities with online programs, and applied to their faculty with great success.   

RRR: You authored your book, "Make Money Teaching Online," with Danielle Babb. Tell us a bit about how you came to partner with Danielle on the book.

JIM MIRABELLA: The first purely online university that I joined was Capella University in Minneapolis, MN. I have been with them for over 5 years now. After about a year of teaching in their PhD program, Danielle Babb emailed me that she was interested in having me serve as her mentor / dissertation chair. I responded to her email and we exchanged several emails, getting to know each other.  We really clicked. She was my first ever PhD mentee, so I was learning the ropes at her expense, and she put a lot of trust in me. I chose a dissertation committee with two other men who worked full-time as adjunct professors, just as I did. Danielle flew through the dissertation process, and when she had her final defense, she was jealous of how her entire committee were all sitting in their homes enjoying the day instead of working in an office. She asked me how she could have such a life too. While she had experience teaching a bit, she never did it to the level that I did, so I coached her on how to make teaching a career. She took my advice and within a year, she was a full-time adjunct too. She found herself coaching others on how she came to this lifestyle. Eventually, she emailed me and asked if we shouldn't write a book about how to do this since my ideas worked for her and her coaching was working for others. The rest is history. She and I have worked on faculty together, have served on dissertation committees together, and have now written a book together. I am very proud of her and what she has become since earning her PhD.

RRR: Let's say I have little or no teaching experience. What's the best way for me to get started teaching online?

JIM MIRABELLA: Experience in some form of teaching is important, be it conducting a corporate training, presenting at a conference, leading a meeting, or guest speaking in a class. Universities are hesitant to hire someone without any experience whatsoever since they don't want to invest time and money prepping you for teaching when you may not like to teach or have any teaching ability. If you look hard enough at your experience, you will find several examples of teaching that will suffice (once you get experience with a real college course, you needn't use those other experiences). So truly anyone with a college degree (Masters or higher is preferable) can find online teaching opportunities. Searching out the jobs is a matter of searching the web and the Chronicle of Higher Ed., going to the different university websites and filling out applications, and most importantly, networking with those who are already teaching online. 

RRR: Give us your favorite "Do's and Don'ts" about teaching online.

JIM MIRABELLA: Do get high speed internet access and a laptop so that you can go to a coffee shop if your internet service is down. Do check in daily or the work will pile up and the complaints will pile up higher. Do be responsive, dependable, and professional at all times. Don't whine or complain orally or in weblogs; if you don't like the conditions, find another university (there are plenty out there). Don't mix your personal politics, religion or biases into your courses. Don't treat your students like anything but human beings who are trying to earn a degree; it's easy to forget when your only communication is via email. Don't look at this as just a quick buck; it is hard, rewarding work and education should never be cheapened.
 
RRR: What's the pay range, and for how many hours of actual work, that one could expect, teaching college courses online?

JIM MIRABELLA: Pay varies dramatically. Some universities pay by the student, some by the week, some by the course. Basically you can expect to earn about $200-$400 per week for a single course, on average. Just be wary that some schools appear to pay well and have immense demands that take up so many hours per week, while others have limited demands. Unfortunately, you won't learn about how each school differs unless you network or try out the school personally. Most schools are similar, and you can expect to put in about 5-10 hours per week for a single course.

RRR: Who are some good employers of online teachers, and where are they on the Web?

JIM MIRABELLA: There are so many, and I have only worked for a few. The more students that are enrolled, the more teaching opportunities exist, so the University of Phoenix is always hiring (but they have more competition too, and are not necessarily a favorite place). My favorites are the ones I work at (i.e., Capella University, Northcentral University and Webster University), as I have dropped those that I didn't like as much. The best online employers are nearly impossible for inexperienced instructors to get into, as the turnover is low. Most schools are good ones and there are just too many to list. The bad ones include all of the non-accredited ones as well as some I would rather not mention for personal reasons.

RRR: How do you see the demand for online teachers evolving in the near term, and perhaps five years out? Should teachers in the developed economies be concerned about competition from teachers in the developing economies, such as India?

JIM MIRABELLA: The demand is growing and will continue to grow as more and more people seek out online degrees. I don't expect to see the jobs given to developing economies just to save money; people are paying a lot of money for these degrees and they want published, well-established professors in the course rooms. The nice thing about accreditation is that there are requirements for the people hired as faculty, so credentials cannot be sacrificed to save money. There is also a greater demand on adjuncts to get published, and more and more universities are listing their online faculty on their website, so the quality of the individuals is quickly becoming of paramount importance, as it currently is with traditional public universities. Personally, I am not concerned about losing my job because of economics; I am confident that by performing well and helping the reputation of the university, I will maintain my employment for a long time.

FROM THE R3 MAILBAG -- QUESTIONS ABOUT WORKING FROM HOME, AND OTHER RAT RACE TOPICS

DEAR R3: I’ve applied for several online jobs, but I haven’t gotten a reply from anybody. It’s rude. When I got out of college and applied for work, all the employers would reply with a letter, telling me their decision. Do these online employers even exist? Why are they so rude?

R3: The online jobhunting process is different from the traditional “brick and mortar” experience, which some jobseekers are more accustomed to. In the online process -- which, we agree, can be quite brusque -- employers often reply only to applicants they are interested in, and will NOT reply to everyone else. (Sometimes, but not always, they will mention this policy in their job leads.)  

Why the “new rudeness”? The slower pace of earlier days allowed for more consideration; the strong demand for home-based work makes individual replies unfeasible; smaller companies can’t afford to devote staff time to reply considerately to large waves of emails; and e-applications are easy to dispose of -- just hit “delete” -- which makes for lighter corporate consciences.

As to whether online employers exist, IBM, AETNA, American Express, etc., are indeed with us, as are the other hirers we feature. However, with a 51-to-1 “scam ratio” among work-at-home job leads, your skepticism is healthy, and we discover many “nonexistent” hirers in our research every week.    
 

NO IRONY HERE -- “DILBERT” CREATOR SCOTT ADAMS WORKS FROM HOME
I guess I’m unlike most people, for while I do enjoy the strip, reading “Dilbert” often leaves me with a melancholy aftertaste -- I just see millions of people, trapped in those same frames, only larger, and not knowing how to escape. But I was delighted to discover in a recent CNN interview that Dilbert’s “Dad,” Scott Adams, works from home.

Turns out Adams is an ex-Rat Racer, too: “In 1989, Dilbert was first published in newspapers, but I kept my job at Pacific Bell for about six years after that. So I guess I was working at home at the same time I was going to work in my office job.”

(Like Chris and me, Adams is also bossed around by a cat. Chris has two ex-barn cats in Connecticut, and mine, Lily, was adopted from a tack room at a race track. Lily used to be Tiger, until the irate vet who was scheduled to neuter him called me and said, “Mr. Haaren! Your cat what’s his name! Tiger! This cat is not a male, it’s a female!” [Just to get his goat, so to speak, since he had no need to be crabby, I put on my best cheerful cheerleader voice, and replied, “Huh! Well, I guess we’ll have to change his name!”] So Tiger became Lily.)

Scams 
As noted, while listings contained in the Bulletin have been screened by our staff, and we believe in good faith that all listings are legitimate, Staffcentrix, LLC cannot guarantee the legitimacy of all listings, and we can make no representations or accept any responsibility regarding prospective employers themselves.

Should you encounter any lead that appears to be a scam, please report it to us immediately. Such items may include:  
  • Positions that were posted as "work at home" that are not;
  • Posts that turn out to be multi-level marketing (MLM) operations or "get rich quick" schemes
  • Any "employer" who asks for money before releasing more details about the job
We have a zero tolerance policy regarding such "employers" and, when they are reported, we will make certain that no further posts from these parties are allowed into the Bulletin.
