My ONL212 Reflections

I was unfamiliar   with online tools and resources in the beginning of  the  ONL212 course. I had never use d  tools like miroboard or  Lucidchart  – in fact I did  no t even know about the ‘annotate’ feature in zoom, although I have used it for two years since  the  COVID-19 Pandemic.   The important things that I have learnt through my engagement in the ONL course is leadership.
