Chapter 5 and 6 were my favorite but chapter 10 was ridiculously long. She spoke of the importance of progressive or engaged pedagogy but I don’t think she explained much about what that actually *is*. Chapter 14 left me scratching my head. I will buy the physical copy for some of the chapters, and could see this being helpful to future professors.
