Faculty Responses
I loved the fact that most activities were modeled so wecould understand the process and how to integrate themwhich was the practical application component. And thevariety of activities and resources presented gave lots of
creative ideas for building our course.
I feel like there's lots of support within our group and all ofthe PCC support services. The main thing is to keep theconnection between our colleagues so we don't feelisolated and can share our successes and challenges.
