Evaluations
I really appreciated this course. I will be honest, I initially signed up for the course because I am short on renewal credits from taking some time off and 45 credits was wonderful! However, this course became more than that. I learned a lot and am eager to use what I learned in my classroom this coming school year, thank you Anna.
​
I just want to say thank you for offering this course. I have grown so much these last 3 weeks. It was a lot to shove in and does require me to continue my learning on my own but at least now I'm not doing it from a place of total ignorance.
​
This was the best class I have ever taken - in my entire life - ever.
Course offered again Fall 2024!
