Grace Hauck
Great course going through an excellent everybody should read. Highly recommend buying your copilot books used. It's the same book you're getting. I learned a lot from the book and the discussions. Amy is quick to grade and respond. A discussion, journal entry to reflect and apply learned skills and a way to show your learning to others from the reading are the 3 weekly assignments for 4 weeks. It's completely manageable for time. This is a GREAT class that I highly recommend!

This class helped me understand how mindset can help me be a better learner and a better teacher. I am enjoying using this information with my fifth grade class, helping them understand the power and choice of mindset.
