EdTech: Sharing resources using links and attachments
Using links and attachments is a means of connecting two separate parts to a communication. The first part is the primary narrative. It is an explanation, introduction or scenario setting narrative in a text, message, mail or web-page. The second part is further content that provides evidence, by way of amplification or explanation of the primary narrative.

Useful reminder about how we share information with learners and colleagues.
Useful module explaining the difference between links and attachments "Whilst attachments to messages is useful in communication between individuals, creating lists of links is an efficient way of making large amounts accessible."
Well researched links.
Good information on attachments
More clear content within this section compared to the last part however its still not clear if you have completed all the tasks.
I like to use a further reading with links attached at the end of my resources
This content is useful to understand more efficient and collaborative ways of sharing resources.
Did not really learn anything new as I already was confident in when and how to use links and attachments within my communication with others. However for someone who was not aware of this information, the module would be considered interesting and informative.
Some useful suggestions made, although most is what experienced teachers should already be doing.
I think this module could have been embedded into another and fully explained in less than 60 seconds. It was about links v attachments, and could have perhaps been more effectively presented as a simple infographic.
Most of this content seemed like common sense - not sure that it required a module to itself?
The audio voice on the module seems very robotic and sounds computer generated which is a shame as it detracts from the content
Unexpected
very helpful
