Submitting responses was difficult due to technological issues- I wasn’t able to view the question/ once response was written, was unable to submit/ constantly required refresh button to update and post. Was a little frustrating- took three and a half hours to finish instead of the one hour that was indicted.
Nancy – CLINT ISD (verified owner) –
I had to refresh in order to be able to see the question on the discussion questions, but other than that it had very good information.
