It was a great day. I really enjoyed it. Getting comments, suggestions, and help from teachers all over the country was fun David did a great job presenting and he was very patient answering our questions. I spent time after the workshop and got all the labs working. On Monday I will show the students the Maximum Surprize. Betty Cheyne jcheyne Weymouth High School Weymouth, Massachusetts |

I enjoyed the Conference Call workshop. It was an interesting experiment, and I find that this is a good format for Computer Science and probably any workshop where you are learning new skills. Kathleen Weaver kweaver Texas Computer Teachers Resources |

I found the experience very worthwhile. I was frankly somewhat skeptical about how much might be accomplished in a single day, and online. I am happy to say my doubts were groundless. At the end of the day I was very tired but quite satisfied the day had been well spent. The online discussion was handled well. Your slides are well done and well structured for ease in learning. My thanks for your time and efforts. Richard Lamb rlamb Computer Department Chair Cranbrook Schools Bloomfield Hills, MI |
