    1. LeaAnn – MIDLOTHIAN ISD (verified owner) –

      Great course

    2. Tamla – DALLAS ISD (verified owner) –

      This is good lessons to explore other google tools.

    3. Kimberly – SCHERTZ-CIBOLO-U CITY ISD (verified owner) –

      This is good information but our district has moved to Schoology where a lot of these functions are available within one platform. Also, because of Covid, teachers were forced to find platforms that support their needs. So we’re using tools and other platforms that meet our needs. However learning about alternative apps out there is helpful.

    4. Lisa – BETHEL-TATE LOCAL (verified owner) –

      very useful, especially with increased use of remote learning

    5. Michele – LANCASTER CITY (verified owner) –

      Some of the overviews were a bit vague. I would have liked fewer items with more description for each one. It felt rushed.
      The reflection questions were a distraction. It would have been nice to have had them at the end.

    6. Shannon – VALLEY VIEW LOCAL (verified owner) –

      Very useful information

      Awesome training

    29. Holly – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner) –

      This guy is horrible at public speaking. It was really hard to listen to.

    30. Cynthia – FLOUR BLUFF ISD (verified owner) –

      This one is really helpful especially during this time of teaching distance learners.

    31. Sheri – HARMONY SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE – HOUSTON NORTH DISTRICT (verified owner) –

      Most of what he was talking about with G-Suite we already use especially with distant learning being the norm.

    32. Dalia – PHARR-SAN JUAN-ALAMO ISD (verified owner) –

      Useful, will be able to use several of these programs in my science class.

    33. LUZ – SOCORRO ISD (verified owner) –

      This session was very informative, unfortunately e all great applications only to be used by google account users.

    34. Jennifer – FLOUR BLUFF ISD (verified owner) –

      Great ideas for using technology in the classroom, especially now while online learning is so prevalent.

    35. MIGUEL – SOCORRO ISD (verified owner) –

      Very helpful. Especially with remote and hybrid learning.

    36. Nathalie – HARMONY SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE – HOUSTON NORTH DISTRICT (verified owner) –

      It was way to overwhelming and had a lot of new information. Although it did give me more options, it did not teach me how to use them and instead gave me links to go learn myself. I would’ve liked for them to share less options and give more details or the course be longer to cover the information in more detail.

    37. Michele – COLUMBUS CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT (verified owner) –

      Great

    38. Summer – Logan-Hocking Local Schools (verified owner) –

      If you have not used google classroom, google forms, google docs, etc. then this is very informative. If you already have a good base level knowledge of google applications, then a lot of the information will be recap of what you know.

    39. Mitch – VIDOR ISD (verified owner) –

      Great course

    45. Michelle – LOS FRESNOS CISD (verified owner) –

      It was too much info all at once

    46. Christopher – BOLING ISD (verified owner) –

      I’m always on the search for new ways to implement technology. Covid has increased our usage this year, and many of these things are already being used on my campus. But there are new ones to try out!
