"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
"I enjoyed the course!"--Brandi E., NE
"I enjoyed reading 'The Active Classroom'. Many ideas were reinforced and gained that I will use in the upcoming school year, especially centered around students having structured conversations."--Korene F., NE
"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
"This course was laid out very well and the expectations were clear. I will be using activities and strategies that came as a result of this course."--Elizabeth S., OH
"This course was awesome! I walked away with many practical strategies I can implement in my kindergarten classroom. I loved how the course was built upon basic pedagogy but gave me a fresh outlook on how I can make my classroom more interactive and engaging."--Chandra L., NE
"These are great courses to take for a working mother. I am able to complete the courses on my own time, and even though it is an independent study I learn many valuable strategies to implement into my classroom." --Sarah B., OH
"I thought this was another great course from Be A Great Teacher! There was practical strategies that I can implement from day one in my class that will make the experience more active. I appreciated the questions and time for reflection. Great class!" --Ted V., IA
"I really enjoyed the flexibility of being able to work at my own pace and complete the work on my own time. This course was very similar to the ones I have taken in the past, which is comfortable and familiar with no big surprises, which is nice." --Katherine M., NE
