    If I would have taken this course when it was more recent, I would have rated it higher, but since I was aware of and have used a large number of these tools before, I didn’t give it the highest rating. I did learn about a few new (to me) gems, so I’m pleased.

    Some of the tools are very useful, and I’m glad to have learned about them. It seems this course was a bit dated. Most of the tools mentioned date back before the 2020 pandemic, where virtual education boomed and so many new tools are available now. With a course on technology, it’s important to update more frequently.
