Learn How Discovery Education Can Help Prepare Your Students for Success
I love that I have become more of a facilitator than a lecturer. When [students] are in control of the information they take ownership of their learning, and we can have deeper conversations. It makes it very easy to assess student learning, and students don't realize that they are being assessed.
