There was a lot of information given!! I think anyone could find a couple that would be useful. Even if you’re not into technology.

Jason – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) – February 3, 2022

Overall good but there are some resources that are dated and not really necessary. Google hangouts and flubaroo for example. This course could use a more updated video that excludes some the dated sources that are mentioned.

I like that this course offers a variety of tools and introduces you to tools you may not have heard of. It is always helpful to have more tools in your toolbox that you can use with students.
