Amanda – MIDLAND ISD (verified owner) –
I learned ideas I really hadn’t heard before, and I like how they had us incorporate all of the techniques into our own lessons. However, the audio was a bit hard to hear sometimes and since I completed it digitally, I wish I had a printout of the items being referenced. I also wish there were more examples for higher level course (ex: high school ELA). I felt like a lot of the examples were too simple for my classes.
