  1. Caitlyn – BOERNE ISD (verified owner) –

    This professional development helped me further understand depth and complexity.

  2. Joylee – TULOSO-MIDWAY ISD (verified owner) –

    These concepts were a little harder to follow in this online presentation. I wish I could’ve asked questions as if I were in the class.

  3. Kelley – WESTERVILLE CITY (verified owner) –

    I liked the presenter. I wonder if we could have been given a reference sheet with an explanation of terms – to icons – to what I look for and connect with, in order to understand the concept better. I enjoyed her examples with teaching math concepts. I REALLY liked that she showed some student work to show this practice in action. Thank you! I wonder if the camera could have shown us the large post it chart that she was writing on to describe how to teach main idea. I liked her voice and calm demeanor. I would take a class from Kim again.

  4. Yvette – LAREDO ISD (verified owner) –

    Great course and use of examples. I appreciate that she showed student work.

  5. Lila – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –

    loved the student examples. lots to gain from this course.

  6. Robbie – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –

    I could not even see the type on the matching questions and for the most part, the color font on the slides were to light for the background color. This was all very frustrating.

  7. Jennifer – MIDWAY ISD – WOODWAY (verified owner) –

    This should have an introductory component. It presumes a great deal of knowledge regarding Thinkins Skills. This seemed to be a part 2.

  8. Steven – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –

    Great teaching moment with GT, a lot of great info on this concept

  9. Paolo – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –

    Excellent

  10. Eric – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –

    The utilization of icons is a cool idea and should be used throughout the district as a way of streamlining lesson plans.
