Some of the tools I already knew about, but I still was able to extend my knowledge (such as diverse ways to utilize Google Forms, etc.) So many practical examples and ideas – thank you!

Virtual teaching is difficult and differentiating for GT students (and all students at all various levels) is just as difficult. This training gives great ideas as to how to be successful in this environment as a teacher.

I liked how the presenter compared virtual and analog learning to the Jetsons in Orbit City! So true. Virtual as a stand alone doesn’t work. A balance between virtual and non virtual is the healthy way for any child or adult. Excellent job to the presenter. This course was so worthwhile.
