I wish there had been more resources and information in this training that were new to me. I am already very familiar with google, and I think that most teachers are. There were a few tools in this course that I hadn’t heard of, but I was expecting to hear a lot of new information.

I thought the apps he presented were interesting. I think it would help a little more if he would have demonstrated how to use the apps. I know it is only an hour course, but he went through so fast that when I went on my own, I was looking around, but wasn’t sure where to start.
