Good ideas!

Very Informative.
Lindsey – NEDERLAND ISD (verified owner) –
There are a lot of models teachers can use for differentiation. Some seem time consuming to set up and will most likely work best with older students.
Ashley – ALVARADO ISD (verified owner) –
I loved this course, it was very informative and gave me many new ideas.
Julie – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner) –
This course presents many different types of choice boards/center/stations as well as defining different learning styles. This gives an educator many ideas to implement in the classroom.
Melanie – ALVARADO ISD (verified owner) –
There is way too much information all at one time that does not allow for you to interact or respond to new knowledge along the way. It doesn’t let you participate in responses until the end of the course.
