Angel – LA FERIA ISD (verified owner) – June 1, 2020

I enjoyed this preview of technology available for educators. I new few applications but were not aware of many others. I was pleased by the variety of applications provided, It took me longer than 1hr. because of notes taking. I will recommend this training to revamp technology used on classroom.

This was a great course! I loved being able to see his notes and pause so that I could take my own. I wish I could have seen more of the tools in action, but look forward to exploring more on my own.
