Tim did not disappoint, his presentation was entertaining, stimulating and gave us a lot to think about.
Before his talk, I couldn’t see how Codap was relevant to teaching topics other than stats. Now I can’t wait to use it in so many ways!!!
engaging and funny and gave me some ideas for how to make my lessons more rich
Brilliant
