I really enjoyed this course. It was good to see that we are using some of things she mentioned. I got some new great ideas to add to my classroom and my goal is to make sure those higher learners are being challenged and getting what they need.
Rebecca – EL PASO ISD (verified owner) –
There were many excellent examples of how to engage not only gifted learners but all students.

I thought the idea of different differentiation ideas were good. However, having such a broad amount of ideas did not allow for a real examination of how to properly incorporate them into the classroom. I was disappointed with that aspect.
