  11. Crystal – PORT NECHES-GROVES ISD (verified owner)

  12. Kaitlin – BASTROP ISD (verified owner)

    I thought this was extremely helpful, but I can’t find all of the apps I want to use so that is a bit disappointing.

  13. Julie – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner)

    Great to the point presentation that shares tech tools.

  14. Alexandra – ALAMO HEIGHTS ISD (verified owner)

    This session seems to be extremely out of date and maybe a new one needs to be recorded.

    Great resources

    I learned a variety of new tools that I would benefit from in and out of the classroom.

    Had some different things to think about.

  20. Sonya – BASTROP ISD (verified owner)

    This was quick, concise and offered tons of great resources as well as suggestions for use.

  21. Brian – UNITED ISD (verified owner)

    I think this was a decent overview of some decent tools, but at this point it seems a bit dated.

  22. Barbara – PLANO ISD (verified owner)

    There are lots of great ideas for digital apps and programs for educational use.

  23. Tracy – PROSPER ISD (verified owner)

    This course had a lot of good tech ideas. With a lot of schools needing to be virtual, this is a great course.

  24. Ericka – VIDOR ISD (verified owner)

    This was great!

  25. Julie – BURLESON ISD (verified owner)

    This had some great resources.

  26. Aliza Jackie – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner)

    Really good resources here, but I wish that it had spent chosen to focus on fewer tools (or been lengthened to be a 3 hour training) so more time could be spent walking the trainee through the functions of each tech tool. For a training about tech tools, it really failed to utilize those for the trainee. Why aren’t there screenshots or screen recordings of the trainer showing us how to use these tech tools? Now we have 60 things to go explore on our own time and see what works for us and what doesn’t. That seems like a waste when the training could have been 3 hours long and incorporated that information.

  27. Arthur – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner)

    I learned about so many tools that have the potential to be VERY USEFUL this year as we start online.

  28. Jon – PROSPER ISD (verified owner)

    Great course. Lots of tools to use and try. This would be a great course for any teacher, new to the profession or a veteran.

    This was a great, fast paced course. I liked that the tools were grouped by function during the presentation. I also appreciate the 1 minute summary of each. I could easily tell the tools that I will be doing more research on to see if they are a good fit for my classroom, and ones I don’t need to focus on.
