Intrepid Video Clip

The Intrepid video is an excellent example of a teacher who integrated technology even though she was apprehensive about her technology skills. In this clip, she talks about letting her students become the experts rather than mastering all of the skills herself. Many of our participants were very encouraged by her experiences in the Adult Ed classroom.
