  8. Kristie – CORPUS CHRISTI ISD (verified owner) –

    I did enjoy this course. It was not too long, nor too short. It went by quickly but was thorough enough to help me realize that even though I feel that I am a critical thinker, I also have a creative thinking side. I am a successful teacher who tries to foster a balance between critical and creative thinking. The course did a good job of laying out the 4 basic creative thinking skills and ever reinforced my belief in “brainstorming”.
