Poll for Eric

Eric MJ is thinking of returning to school and taking an education after degree (his first degree is in mechanical engineering).

So he does not have to make a blog with a poll, I am posting his question here (the poll is on the right):

Should he go into the Elementary or Secondary schooling stream?
For those not familiar with the Canadian (Alberta) Schooling system:
Elementary is grades 1-6 (approximate age of the students are 5-11).
Secondary is grades 7-12 (approximate age of the students are 12-17) - this is usually broken into Junior and Senior High School (Jr High is usually grades 7-9 (ages 12-14) and Sr. High is usually grades 10-12 (ages 15-17)).

Please post your comments (any reasons for your choice) to this blog post.


If you don't know Eric, you are still welcome to vote. But here is a little about him (I put here also because I added the third option to suggest he does further education and teach Post-Secondary - college, university):
Eric is a fairly bright man, quite interested in the sciences (though he did not like the biology dissection labs). He has a creative and imaginative mind (which is what I like about him). In university he got interested in history through a sociology course on the Impact of Technology on Society Throughout History (or something of the sort). It was recently noted that he has a good heart and at least one toddler likes him (and it is not his nephew). He can be quite intellectual when he talks, and even some adults (me included) sometimes don't know what he's saying.

That is my attempt to present him in as rounded a way as I can (I don't want to bias people's voting).
