What a great course and learning experience! I learned so much about Prodigy and how to use game-based learning to better support my students. The course gave me the tools and confidence to use Prodigy in a meaningful way. The topics were practical and easy to follow, and the instructor was responsive while keeping the workload manageable. I would definitely recommend this course to other educators.

This class is a great way to learn all you need to know to get started with Prodigy. It is super straightforward, and you will walk away with easy to implement steps to use Prodigy in your class. Each week gives you small steps that actually feel doable on top of an already heavy workload.
