Feedback
I do try to provide feedback as often as possible. You are most likely to see feedback on projects and assessments, but I also try to give you feedback on lessons when appropriate. If you ever see a grade that is low or lower than expected, please press the word bubble on that assignment as you can see below. Once this opens, you can read/listen to the feedback. If you would like to redo a lesson, project, or assessment, please reach out to me for assistance as needed.
