  1. Julie – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner) –

    Great introduction to D & C!

  2. Gerardo – LAREDO ISD (verified owner) –

    Very informative. Lessons are geared towards elementary and middle school students, but the concepts can easily be used and should be used with all grade levels. Worth a look.

  3. Sara – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner) –

    This course was interesting, but I thought it would have gone more in “depth” in regards to providing more specific examples of prompts and how they can apply to students’ lives outside of the classroom.

  4. Dr. Natalie – BEAUMONT ISD (verified owner) –

    I lost some understanding of what was being stated or the definition of an area right near the middle of the presentation, but I received clarity as the presenter moved forward. I became confused about the difference in depth and complexity per the prompts , but in the end it all came together.

  5. Shawna – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –

    Appreciated the warm up exercise- great way to make it more relatable.

  6. Crystil – GRAND PRAIRIE ISD (verified owner) –

    5 stars!

  16. Laurie – PLANO ISD (verified owner) –

    I enjoyed this course very much. I have often wondered how to get this going with my students, and the ideas that she gave were wonderful and I plan to start using them right away.

  17. christel – COLUMBUS CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    good refresher of desiging units of study rather than the basic and obvious over-used ways
    The Big Orange Splot gave me ideas to use in literature studies

  18. Elizabeth – BURKBURNETT ISD (verified owner) –

    Excellent teaching of the depth and complexity icons and their use.

    This was one of the most useful courses I have ever taken on this platform. The instructor was incredible and the content really well sequenced and delivered.

  24. Shannon – OLENTANGY LOCAL (verified owner) –

    It was ok. It was helpful to go over the basics of what Depth and Complexity are, so if you are a novice on the topic it would be a good course. However if you already have a basic understanding of the concept, this will be a lot of review and a few basic examples of usage.

  25. Araceli – LAREDO ISD (verified owner) –

    I think it needs to be divided into two parts.

  26. erika – UNITED ISD (verified owner) –

    Great ideas!

  27. Elizabeth – UNITED ISD (verified owner) –

    thought provoking

  32. Monica – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    Would like to see more ideas implemented. Sample lessons

  33. Marissa – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    It will take time and implementation of these tools to really know if this course is useful.

  34. Jennifer – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    It is some things I currently am doing in my classroom. It also offered some new ideas.

  35. Leslie – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    Did a great job showing big idea topics, but rather it focus on content areas.

  36. Eric – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    The handouts and videos were helpful to see them in action. Also, the samples for the completed box diagram were beneficial to see how the end product looks.

  37. Sonia – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    Lots of background info given

  38. Lilly – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    Useful information.

  40. CHRISTOPHER – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    I do not learn very well by watching videos.

  41. Erin – MONROEVILLE LOCAL (verified owner) –

    Pretty good information. A little elementary in nature.

  42. Susie – PORT CLINTON CITY (verified owner) –

    I think this is a good introduction to the prompts of Depth and Complexity. I wish there was a little more discussion warning educators from using this as a “listing” strategy and more how to incorporate the frame as a tool to engage students in deeper exploration of a topic.

    I thought this was fabulous. I had never studied these prompts but I feel like I left with a good understanding of what each one means and how to implement that prompt in my classroom.

    i really enjoyed it-very detailed and provided a lot of examples
