Read MoreI have just completed the first module of this program (Intro to SI) and I have to say that I am impressed! The information presented is clear, concise, and held my interest throughout. I particularly love the fact that the terms used are defined in "plain English" and the key points are written at the end of each section. Very well done! I am looking forward to continuing on in this course. *************** At completion: Thank you so much, Dr. Covington! This was an awesome course, and I am so excited to share it with Mr. Smith (Principal) and my "SI Classroom Facilitators" at Edgewood Community Developmental School. Given these tools, I am certain that my SI staff will truly make a positive difference, not only in the lives of our exceptional children but as an important resource for our children's parents and our teachers in the classroom. I very highly recommend this course to anyone who works with exceptional children in the school system. Words cannot express my appreciation for finding this course online. -- Julia Anderson, OTR/L, NC.
