Useful info, lots of research provided. (It would have been excellent except for excessive questions from viewers who were obviously not paying attention or below the intellectual/academic level needed to follow the presentation.)

Great info outlining what research has been done and what hasn't...gives me caution as I work with families and advise them on what to work on at home.

I am very interested in this approach to CAS as it has direct application to one of my current students.

Review by: Member on March 12, 2013

The handouts supported the oral presentation well. I didn't give it an "excellent" rating because the information was at an intensity level that made it hard to assimilate. I had to do the recorded session b/c my internet connection on the day of the webinar was too slow to maintain the presentation, but I'm actually glad I had to do the recorded session, which allowed me to rewind/replay parts I didn't immediately "get."
