thoughts to take into account 
when you plan and design an ONL environment

Trust me! I really like being in my PBL-group – it doesn’t matter if it is in Zoom or somewhere else…

At this point I was hopeful, thinking that we were going to let ourselves free, brainstorm and speculate to turn everything inside out and upside down to create some sort of an hypothesis

– new to the world, of course! – 

Then words like “references” and “literature” cooled down my enthusiasm a little …
