The online GLAD training was thorough and very informative. The video models of strategies being implemented within the classroom were a fantastic part of this great training. As a secondary teacher, it would have been nice to see a couple of examples of a few of the many fantastic techniques implemented at the middle or high school level or even just a quick reference guide after each section that would assist secondary teachers in implementing and tweaking these strategies as necessary.
