Christina – VICTORIA ISD (verified owner) – February 20, 2023

I enjoyed the course and found many great tools to use in my classroom. I liked that I could go back the exact slide I needed to view instead of guessing where I needed to go if it was one long video. I appreciate that I can complete them on my time.

Marylou – LAREDO ISD (verified owner) – February 23, 2023

A lot of the apps/websites are old (even though the course is only 4 years old), so they should be updated to newer apps and sites.

This was a great resource for resources. I think the speaker did a great job hitting main points and giving a preview of what is expected of each digital resource.
