"This course and text were definitely on my list of favorites. It challenged my current thinking but in a productive manner. Many of the activities and procedures I do in my classroom were reinforced but I learned many new skills and strategies as well. The chapter on modalities and the chapter 11 section on assumptions were both very informative. Thanks for the great course!" --Eric R., OH

"Hands down the BEST class I have taken thus far! I cannot wait for the school year to start in the fall, to allow me to implement all of these ideas into my curriculum. The text book was an easy read, had great ideas, and shared activities to help understand the materials being presented. Great class and HIGHLY recommend it to all educators!"--Jena V., MN
"This class is an excellent way to get teachers to change up their normal routines and get students engaged in the material they are teaching. While each class is different , getting students engaged is a great way to increase the retention of the material being taught. This class does a good job of reminding us of that."-- Cory V., CA
