This course was fine but took much longer than an hour to complete because the the countless video interludes. The time is fine, but we should receive more than one hour of PD.

I enjoyed the information on low achieving students and lower income students. I feel that the lower income situation could be a big part of education over the course of the next few years, as we come out of our current situation and jobs are lost.
