  5. Jason – PROSPER ISD (verified owner)

    Overall good but there are some resources that are dated and not really necessary. Google hangouts and flubaroo for example. This course could use a more updated video that excludes some the dated sources that are mentioned.

    I am always looking for new resources to spice up lessons or my classroom. I believe there are several resources here that I want to try to find time to explore a bit. I wish we had more coding that lined up with our TEKS as students love that.

  14. Audrey – HPS – HOUSTON NORTH (verified owner)

    Tons of useful resources.

    Even though the course is a few years old, I was able to find ideas that I haven’t tried before. He’s probably updated his list since the pandemic began, but there was enough for me to look into because they were interesting. I also liked it because he knows how gifted kids think, and then wove that knowledge into how to use the apps and software.
