  6. Thank you from someone who took a gap year (or...or five...or eight) between undergrad and Masters! This was my first class back in the swing of things and it made for a fun and engaging term. To 2021 we go!

  8. Thank you for this video. I really appreciate your enthusiasm and passion! I learned a lot from this. I am always honest in saying I do not like reading, but this course gave me a different perspective on reading, especially reading research. The techniques and strategies I learned in this course will definitely help me the others. Happy holidays! I look forward to taking more of your courses.

  10. 2020 did suck, however, I am trying to look on the bright side. As a high school teacher who is teaching online, my kids are gaining skills to prepare them for online learning, which opens up a whole new set of skills if they want to make use of online college classes. I have also gotten to spend more time with my own children and grandchildren and that has been awesome. I have started cycling and am looking forward to trying to compete in the near future, if COVID ever lets up. And I did have more time to become a better teacher through developing better lesson. And lastly, I had some good time to get started on this degree. It has been challenging but we will work though it and come out stronger on the end. Thank you for a wonder class.

  15. Teacher this year has been one of the toughest in every way. A year in Afghanistan and now that deployment is over nothing is like before back home due to the pandemic. However, I must admit that this class allowed me to have a forum in which I had the freedom to direct my interests and develop them to the maximum. Thanks for everything, best wishes always!
