I thought that this course offered mostly basic knowledge of lesson design and differentiation techniques. It will offer only a fresh perspective if you have not taken any educational classes recently.

This had a lot of information to help with designing a lesson plan but was part of a group of other courses so it was from the middle of entire group of lessons. When choosing this particular one, I didn’t realize that and feel like I should have gone in order with the other lessons.
