    Ideas like this are powerful because the presenter also gave the management piece. Implementation always comes down to how to mange it in the classroom and that was most helpful. This was an idea-starting course, where every detail did not have to be included, but enough was shared, and with enthusiasm, so that I want to try to implement it in my classroom too.
