"[The videos] offer realistic exposure to lecture styles, student and instructor behaviour and expected interaction or lack thereof as well. The settings offer a representation of how technology is used in the classroom. The pace of the lecture is suitable for students to practice note-taking skills. These are an excellent replacement for actual class visits." --Patricia Birch

"I like the break-down of skills in the book and the fact that each are covered in detail; often something like note-taking is treated quite perfunctorily." --Susan A. Curtis

"Authentic, interesting and engaging lectures that allow students to practice and hone their note-taking and critical listening skills." --Bill Hodges
