I tried to use COOLCAT20 for Advancement courses and it is not working.
Please help ASAP. I would like to sign up today.
I emailed you back but it is COOL20 and working for the forseeable future, so I’m so glad you’re taking advantage of this opportunity!
Have you taken any of the Advancement Courses? If so, which ones, specifically? Does anyone have any recommendations?
I have two right now that I’m looking at — Differentiated instruction and they have one on computer science integration in middle School. I think that one of those is what I’m taking next. I have looked deeply into what they are doing and am very impressed. So, start with what you want to learn and do in your classroom so you can apply them!
