STUDENT INSIGHTS
"I'm wrapping up my assignments in this awesome class and enjoy reflecting on all that I have learned. Especially ways that teachers can consume much less paper... allowing teachers to access student results anywhere they have a computer rather than toting around a large stack of papers to grade."
