The reviews are in!
"The group meetings were invaluable, first in that they gave me an opportunity to articulate my thoughts to a bright group, and second (and even more so) in that I got to hear others speak about their plans. This completely opened up my perspective on how I should be thinking about curriculum development."
"It was probably one of the most useful courses I have attended ever."
"I have really needed a structured way to approach my learners who are struggling. This course helped me to identify why they might be struggling so I can respond appropriately. It also gave me tools to help me improve my teaching for those who are doing well."
"The instructor was exceptional. She explained concepts clearly and concisely. I learned a lot from her examples and information presented during the synchronous meetings was very helpful for our learning and discussion."
