As I reflect on my journey for Topic 2, I realise what an awesome journey. Firstly, it was my first time to be the co-presenter of this topic so naturally I felt a bit scared – but my team (ONL 01) and co-partner was amazing and just went with the flow of sharing and assistingContinue reading “Topic 2: Open Learning – Sharing and Openness”
