Reflecting on Your Learning

1. Which web tool/initiative class did you complete? What made you decide to complete this class?
2. What features of the web tool are most appealing to students? To educators? To parents?/How is the initiative important to supporting student learning?
3. One of your co-workers has approached you in the hall for help with a lesson. Write two to three sentences you would use to explain why they should use the INFOhio web tool or initiative to support student learning.
