There are many great courses, many great teachers online - but how many build their courses around a research-backed, digital-age, teaching approach? Activated Academy courses are developed around the teaching approaches (called pedagogies in teacher talk) of the Activated Classroom Teaching (ACT) model. These highly effective approaches, developed by Activated Academy's founder, Dr. Craig Blewett, are the result of years...
