This was good to think about what I can do going forward
Good tips outlined in this module that clarify the importance of connecting communities of tutors/teachers to promote creativity and improve the quality of teaching.
I could relate easily to this module "Teachers who work in isolated situations can use online communities to feel part of a body of teachers and held in professional standing. "
