I really liked it. All the information was presented in various ways and given time to reflect. It talked about several disabilities that most teachers would have in their class and struggle with.

This course provides awareness and some typical signs of varying disabilities and disorders we may have in our classroom. The speaker does a good job of providing ideas (such as simulations) to help other students empathize with these students.
