  18. Rexene – DRIPPING SPRINGS ISD (verified owner) –

    I loved this course, but the video “skipped” many times – not sure if it was me or if the video was recorded that way. It was extremely frustrating to miss pieces of information.

    I thought this class was exceptional! I realized that there is so much about 2e students that I don’t really understand. And the disabilities have so many more impacts on their learning. This was a great training that all teachers should see!

    The course taught best practices for designing lessons for twice exceptional students, as well as describing different disabilities and giving ideas for how to simulate these disabilities for non-disabled students.

    The course gave good explanations of how students could be twice exceptional.

  31. Rebecca – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner) –

    There was a lot of good information in this presentation, but the presenter talked pretty fast and sometimes it was hard for me to follow him. I feel like he could have left out some of his side stories and focused on the important points and maybe slowed it down a little bit. But, overall, I really enjoyed learning about these twice exceptional learners.

  47. KIMBERLY – HALLSVILLE ISD (verified owner) –

    While I enjoyed learning about different types of 2e learners, and enjoyed the speaker just fine, I didn’t learn as many classroom strategies as I had hoped to. I would love to learn even more about Irlen’s. As a Reading teacher, I think it is really underdiagnosed.
