The optical design parameters of a stereo microscope limit its 3-D effects to low powers only. This type of microscope features a large stage for closer viewing of the non-microscope world. Items such as insect parts, plant and flower parts, fossils, stamps, coins, PC boards, material surfaces, etc, and does not need to be mounted on a slide.

I’m a stay at home mom with no full time access to a babysitter. I’m extremely choosy who I leave my kids with. So I don’t have alot of options other than online since I still have a little one not yet in school himself. I have my highschool diploma but I seriously want to get a degree and a career once the boys are all in school.

as another option, check out what courses are available to you as an external student. Many universities have some courses or subjects available through flexible delivery or block mode. you might not be able to do a whole degree this way, but even doing it part time from home (not a full student load each year) will get you started, and once all your kids are at school, you may be able to complete your studies as a full-time student.

I have a full-time job & a full-time life, so I don’t have the time to attend classes & endure a 4 year + long journey to recieve a degree. I understand that most Online programs take about half the time as actually attending class, but I want to know if the degrees obtained are just as credible.

As long as any college you earn your degree from is regionally accredited your degree would be recognized by potential employers and other academic institutions. That having been said not all online colleges are viewed the same (just as not all campus based colleges are viewed the same) by potential employers. Even within the same college the business school might have a better reputation than say the nursing school or vice versa.
It is difficult to say what school is the best (either online or campus) as there are a number of factors that need to be considered. What is more important is finding the best college for you. My biggest recommendation would be to contact a number schools to find the best fit for you and your needs (tuition, schedule, career services, employment opportunities, etc.).
