Very informative

This course had good information and ideas that are helpful when working with 2e students.

Folksy, hoplessly-out of date, full of pseudoscience. Just one example, there’s no such thing as Irlen Syndrome. It has been repeatedly debunked by researchers. The summary of diagnostic criteria for some disorders does not match what is currently listed in the DSMV. I would hope that the person delivering this content would have an updated version if he is still presenting.
