You know I am looking at PLA through TESC. Honestly though, I have a decade and a half experience in what I plan to get PLA credits it, which will be 4 credits for the first topic. Honestly, that's just over a page and a half per year, which is a piece of cake. The scholarship I received only wanted about a 1 page write-up, and even after trimming down I still had nine pages. I think if its a subject you know really well, and something you are really passionate about, the problem is often not figuring out what to write about - but rather not to say more than you really need to in order to express your point.

If you don't mind me asking sanantone, what is your end goal for working on the ASNSM at the same time as your PhD? Is it just a way to fill some free time you may have or as you hinted to you may have future plans and in the interim are looking to wrap these credits into a credential? I can understand either approach and honestly feel it myself. I've finished my second graduate program and am sitting here bored out of my mind. For every cooking, graphic arts, etc. type class I look at for pleasure I've also looked at a graduate program that will take another 3-4 yrs to complete.
I m edumakated thanx to distunce lerning.

I don't really need a degree in a science, but it would be nice to have one to add to my credibility in the field. I'm working toward a designation that requires a certain number of credits in science. I'm not quite sure why I'm doing this. I guess its' sort of a backup plan. After getting this out of the way, I will start working toward becoming a CISSP. This will be more directly related to my field. There is a shortage of criminal justice instructors with the technical skills to teach things like computer crimes and digital forensics.

Unless I'm missing something, it looks like TESC changed lesson 6 in the PLA course. They took out the general rule of 5 pages per credit.

I also think that any writing you'd do would be per course, not collectively. In other words, you wouldn't be writing 1 long paper, but 1 paper for EACH of the courses.
