TESTIMONIALS

“The quality of your work impressed me. So, too, did the eloquence of the interviewed on the videotape [You Can Get There from Here]. Watching the video reinforced in my mind the notion that education ought to be structured more like the working world, that is less textbook and lecture based and more project based. Your Inventory America, Jr. curriculum seems to have adopted that approach, and with success, I hope.”
— Northwood University,
Margaret Chase Smith Library,
Skowhegan, ME


“I was pleased that Wells made history in regard to the distribution of [your] excellent charts. We post the wall charts in the History corridor, and give a copy of the smaller version to Careers for Students of History to each junior and senior major.”

“Your very attractive chart Connecting Core Subjects arrived today. I have already hung it in a place where I can study it from time to time. It has come in a timely manner, since our college is currently engaged in an extensive review and revitalization of our general education curriculum. Your chart provided some good food for thought.”
