"The course 'The Active Classroom,' was a very informative course. The content in the book gave me a great deal of information to think about and implement into my classroom. This course was a little different than other graduate courses I have taken due to the fact that I did everything on my own without having to contact the instructor. This was great because it allowed me the freedom to get the assignments done when I had the time. I liked the idea on one deadline for all assignments. This course has already influenced me in the way I go about doing certain things in my classroom and conversations with my students, parents, and colleagues. I am glad that I decided to take this course and I am looking forward to taking more." --Malinda J., NE
