This was a great tutorial. I have been integrating active learning into my classes for the last few years.

It gave me some new ideas and affirmed that I was successful in my attempts to use this style of teaching.

This course that covered effective teaching strategies was great! I learned a lot of information, plus I reinforced knowledge that what I had already been doing as an instuctor was right on track with good practices!
