The course was interesting and informative, but there were a number of incorrect answers on the practice milestone. Studying from the practice milestone negatively impacted my score on the. final milestone as well as impacted my understanding of the content.

Good course. I understand evaluations much better and the process. I also understand now that this data goes to a higher source as well and that each school has to follow certain standards of measurements and that they report to more than just a district level.

Very Very informative material within this course. I learned educational laws and techniques that I was not aware of. I will certainly recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their teaching awareness. Mr. Gleeden
