This course was great. The book used was very helpful in designing new lessons with the Common Core in mind. The instructor was quick with feedback which helped me with what direction I was going in. I also connected to others taking the course and discussion was valuable.

This course is absolutely amazing! It should be required for every teacher to take, whether they are using CCSS or not. I have taken away so much from it that I will use when school begins in a few weeks. The coursework and assignments were so well thought out, and the book and videos are so meaningful. I highly recommend it!
