  1. Brianna – SOCORRO ISD (verified owner)

    This course was not only very informational but also provided many ideas that can be used in the classroom.

  2. Robin – PROSPER ISD (verified owner)

    There were a lot of practical ideas for differentiating that could be implemented easily into the classroom.

  3. Theresa – LUBBOCK ISD (verified owner)

    I learned of a lot of feasible resources I can use in my 5th grade class. The concept that will stick with me the most from this course was the fact that “moreferentiation” is not differentiation. Students will benefit, from now on, from using the resources I have acquired and the info I have learned.

  4. Carmen – LUBBOCK ISD (verified owner)

    It has some interesting aspects that can be applied in my personal classroom. However, many of the ideas seem to be for upper level grades (I teacher 2nd grade).
