THWT Workshop Testimonials

“The THWT workshop was the most effective professional development class I have ever attended." Robert Morrison, Fenn School, Concord MA

"This course was absolutely wonderful; it opened up a whole new world of opportunities for both me and my students. From learning about the possibilities available in blogs to exploring websites with astounding arrays of information, the workshop presented a myriad of topics, all of which were directly applicable to the classroom. The information was never once overwhelming, mainly because Tom Daccord is a deft guide, leading the class with great humor, calm and patience. He was able to focus his approach to us individually, depending upon each person's level of comfort and familiarity with the particular technology. I left this workshop excited to put into place and use all my newly-acquired knowledge. I highly recommend this course to everyone!" -Larissa Showalter, Garisson Forest School, Owing Mills, MD

"The most hands-on, practical, and cutting-edge workshop I have ever attended."
Carlo Palusci, Zurich International School, Switzerland

"I highly recommend to any teacher hoping to integrate the use of computers into his or her lessons."
Patricia Coates, Albany Academy for Girls Albany, NY

"This workshop has a perfect blend of instruction, discussion, presentation of examples, and time for hands-on exploration. The atmosphere is relaxed, and by the end of the week you've learned an incredible amount, all of which is immediately applicable to the classroom."-Libby Buddinger, Newton Country Day School, Newton MA

"I just completed the 4 week on-line seminar "Teaching the Cold War With the Internet" offered by Tom Daccord of The Center for Teaching History with Technology. Tom provided an incredible amount of useable resources and classroom ready examples as well as very useful instructional feedback. The seminar was truly fantastic! I highly recommend the seminar to anyone who teaches United States History or Cold War Studies courses, it is an invaluable resource for any teacher regardless of technological ability." - Robert Jordan, Morristown High School, Morristown, NJ

"I just wanted to say thank you again for the workshop. It has been a most enlightening experience to see so much in just a few short days. I will be using many of the materials in class this year and in the years to come." -Peter F. Reid St. Joseph's Preparatory School, Philadelphia, PA

"This was a wonderful workshop that provided me with new and useful information for integrating technology with my history classes." -Marilyn Lord, Bancroft School, Bancroft School, Worcester, MA

"This workshop is a great use of time -- it is primarily about good teaching and not just about technology." -Allison Webster, Park School, Brookline, MA

"Tom knows the material extremely well, yet he presents it in a methodical, relaxed way. Very open to questions, very pleasant demeanor, good amounts of hands-on time that is well timed and spaced. Highly recommended." -Fred Hollister, Noble & Greenough School, Dedham, MA

Make it longer!! The online [Blogging] course went by way too fast - there were so many interesting and informative sites to go to - I realize that time constraints and money probably factor into the length - It was well worth both! -anonymous online survey

"Thank you so much for the great [Blogging] workshop!" -anonymous online survey

"Yes, Yes, yes....I would recommend this [THWT] online course again in a heartbeat. It was excellent and more than I had hoped to gain!" - -anonymous online survey
