Thank you @D2L for helping @GwinnettSchools be prepared for unscheduled multiple digital learning days! http://ow.ly/3iY350yLo3r - we at @gwinnettonline are ready because of our partnership with you!
I’m hiding little funny pictures in my D2L site so my students will open the modules and look around. I also sent them an email with this and a pic of baby Yoda. We all need some joy. #iteachmsu

Been toiling away in the background for @LTSAlgonquin @AlgonquinColleg to help faculty move online, and it's been humbling to see how hard everyone is working on this. Truly loving my work right now and excited for my @D2L workshop through @zoom tomorrow. Take care, folks 💙
