Navitas Community: Online Support Strategies

In support of the current online teaching need across Navitas, Learning & Teaching (UPA) have created a community space with online teaching resources, tips and tricks as well as forums for everyone to share their latest resources. Navitas Community: Online Support Strategies offers succinct, digestible information and a starting place for teachers who are getting ready to deliver classes online. This community space is for teachers who are looking for how-to resources and strategies for teaching online.
