I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience of the DLC this year. The strategies and tools gathered through our training sessions have been valuable as I have implemented them in my classroom which is already heavily tech focused. I look forward to more exposure to these practices and integrating them into my lessons in the coming school year as well as helping other teachers in their comfort of these tools in their classes.
