    Good

  3. Carina – HARMONY SCIENCE ACADEMY & SCHOOL OF SCIENCE – HOUSTON SOUTH 101846 OR 101862 (verified owner) –

    There were some good ideas and strategies throughout the course; however, it could have been shorter. I felt that that the speaker repeated the same ideas during some parts.

    It gave lots of different programs and ideas to use for differentiation.

  5. Terry – SAN BENITO CISD (verified owner) –

    very informative.

    This course was very helpful. It gave real life scenarios and I really liked that.

  7. Kalthoom – HARMONY SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE – HOUSTON NORTH DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    It has a lot of good information, said too fast, and with too many resources to the point of feeling overwhelmed.

  8. Omari – HARMONY SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE – HOUSTON NORTH DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    it was an effective course overall especially in regards to dissuading teachers from the notion “more is better” in regards to differentiation.

  9. Sandy – SOUTHWEST ISD (verified owner) –

    Was very informative.

  10. Jessica – PRESIDIO ISD (verified owner) –

    I love the way it was developed to show what is not differentiation in the real classroom and what really is a differentiation strategy
