Analysing any of the sessions we had in the autumn 2018 (by referring to the recordings). Choose a session where in addition to the Adobe Connect tool some other digital tools are used. In the second session where the topic was Implementation 1 - Focus on virtual/online teaching, groups made use of Power-Point for presenting, Padlet for discussions and Mind-map for describing more of a topic.
