Without teachers, children wouldn't know how the wheels on the bus go or that all international banking transactions are conducted using scratch-and-sniff stickers. Forge a bright future for the children of tomorrow with today's Groupon: for $950, you get a three-credit Introduction to the Profession and the Craft of Teaching course at National Louis University (a $2,232 value). The course meets for one three-hour seminar each week for 10 weeks at NLU's Chicago campus. Classes at the Chicago campus run from September 26 to December 5, with no class meeting on November 21.

Celebrating its 125th year as a beacon of education, National Louis University shines proudly as Chicago’s oldest and largest university for teacher preparation. Learn about learning with the Introduction to the Profession and the Craft of Teaching course, which covers such topics as the political and economic forces in American education, development of a personal approach to teaching, and ongoing debates within the teaching profession, such as how many gift apples it takes to skip a grade.

Students also complete a 15-hour field experience in a professional learning environment, where they will observe educators commanding their classrooms, tutoring centers, libraries, and more with engaging discussion and the threat of pop dissertations. Upon completion of the course and admittance to National Louis University’s masters in teaching degree program in secondary, elementary, or special education, students will have earned 3 credits toward completing their degree.

National Louis University is one of Chicago's oldest private universities and a leader of teacher education. The university ranks first in Illinois for the number of graduate degrees conferred and number of social-studies textbooks simultaneously head-balanced, with alumni earning more Golden Apple awards than any other school of education. It is also credited as the founder of the modern American kindergarten movement and the Parent Teacher Association.

The Groupon Guide to: Buying a Sword

Although many of the medieval threats that led to the invention of the sword are now extinct or obsolete—dragons, knighting ceremonies, and careers in musketeerdom—swords are still available from online and late-night television venues if you know where to look. Consider this helpful guide before taking a stab at sword ownership:

Do You Need a Sword? Yes. Though our modern skies are no longer plagued with dive-bombing griffins, swords have thousands of practical household uses, from looking cool on the wall to looking cool in your hand.

Are Swords Legal? Yes, with exceptions. Sword regulations vary from state to state, but you can usually get an up-to-date lowdown on regional swordlaw from an expert, such as your local blacksmith, or, perhaps more practically, the blacksmithing station at your local Home Depot.

Telling Your Spouse: Don't—it will ruin the surprise!

What Kind of Sword Should You Get? This depends on your needs, lifestyle, and the comfortable standing distance of your full-length mirror, where the sword will most likely get the most use. If you are a traditionalist, consider a broadsword—the same implement used by Thomas Jefferson to decapitate Britain's last unicorn.

How can buying a sword change your life?
