Isabel – SPRING ISD (verified owner) – March 1, 2020

Instructor shared many great resources that could be for the students and the teacher, to improve lessons, critical thinking, prepare students for life long challenges and not just for state test. Increase the incorporation of digital instruction in the classrooms and help made more independent learners. This could be use by no GT students as well. I really like the presentation with key points.
