What students have to say about Fresh Perspectives courses…

After feeling computer knowledge impoverished, I now feel empowered!  After taking two other introductory Excel courses over the years, this online course has made the most sense to me.                                            Constance C

I’d like to say how much I appreciate the “For the Classroom” ideas. I will be using those ideas in conjunction with what I have learned so far in my instruction in the lab.                                                                                Barbara M

I enjoyed the challenge and once it was accomplished, I felt a personal triumph.  I appreciated the help and support that Stan Dunlap provided when I felt like throwing the computer out the window.  He kindly helped me through the spots I needed clarification and enabled me to keep pushing.                                                                      Kaye H

I expected this class to teach me new things to do with Excel. I never thought I would learn so many things that I can really APPLY in my own classroom. This is helpful for me RIGHT NOW.                              Mariam B

I found that it is the only online course that I have truly enjoyed. I have a book I can print off or keep on file that will help me in the future remember functions that I may forget. The assignments were timed well. By submitting assignments only twice, I had plenty of time to complete them. And there were no blogs!!!            Gisele F

I am very afraid of the computer, I am always afraid I am going to lose something or break something. This class has shown me that I can do it!! I have been playing every day with my power point. It may not be the best, but it is far above where I thought I would ever be.                                                                                                         Laurie C

This has been one of the most interesting and useful classes I have ever taken.  I really enjoyed the ability to utilize all features within a few days time.  My students are benefiting through enhanced and engaging lessons.  I am also teaching a few colleagues how to incorporate power point slide shows into their instruction!      Amelia M

When reflecting on this course, I am so proud of myself for getting into the whole technology aspect of my job.  It will show my students that their teacher isn’t a dinosaur stuck in the last century.  I look forward to experimenting with power point and learning even more about the numerous features.  Our grant team met recently and we were “showing off” our presentations and I was blown away by the other members of my team.  They are in the intermediate and Advanced classes for PowerPoint and it was UNBELIEVABLE what they accomplished.  I have a great deal to look forward to.                                                                                                                                  Diane S

I am going to encourage the teachers to start requiring students to use the graphic organizer charts in Word, now that I know about them. I get so comfortable using the same formatting that I never bothered to go beyond. I truly appreciate this course!                                                                                                                                               Barbara H
