  20. Rolando – LA FERIA ISD (verified owner) –

    This course allows what classrooms are missing today: creative thinking. A lot of times, and I’m guilty as charged, I don’t always allow my students to think about what it is that they’re learning. This course will hopefully allow me to do so with simple tasks the students can do in relation to their subject and lesson objectives.

    Content was awesome. Computer connectivity for open-ended responses was a problem, again. Module 1 required multiple submissions on multiple log ins to finally accept one of the submissions. (One recorded the very first time.) Module 4 also required multiple submissions to record. – I would recommend the content, but not the online version.
