It was a good review of some basics I learned long ago with the addition of a few new strategies.

I think the actual content and presentation was fine. I had trouble with getting the sound to work consistently and the module 5 quiz kept telling me I had answered incorrectly on a question when I answered exactly as the handout and presenter had listed the order of Questivity Thinking questions. Did it several times and always the same.
