I really liked this course. The speakers seemed relatable and I can definitely apply the material to my classroom. I’ve often wondered about how to push my students forward, especially when we’re reading a novel. Now, I wonder no longer. The Bloom’s Taxonomy section really forced me to think about what I ask and why I ask it.
