More informationI found the online course really helpful with concrete, practical strategies that I could implement directly in my classes. I’ve been using some of the strategies (two column notes, the 5 step writing process) and they’ve been very effective and the students have liked them. The video demonstrations helped me tremendously in understanding how to apply and utilize the strategies.
