I enjoyed the amount of information covered in the 60 minutes. I think there was a visual that I missed. I had the slides, but sometimes it seemed that there was a visual as well.

Teachers who have more than five years of experience will probably not get much out of the presentation because most of the tools suggested are dated. There are newer and better alternatives. I liked Bryan’s energy, but he needs to practice presenting with Office 365 or another app that analyzes the over use of “uhm”. It got distracting and progressively got worse.
Jason – MANSFIELD ISD (verified owner) –
I like the concept of 60 Tech Tools in 60 Minutes. I found it gave me a lot of ideas and new tools to check out for myself. Some of them are a bit dated; however, some are still around and hanging on strong!
