Daily Activity: Upvote others’ challenges on the Challenges Padlet, if you haven’t already 🙂

If you haven’t already done so, please go to the Challenges Activity Padlet and upvote/like the ones you have also faced or ones you are also curious about. This will help us prioritize (hopefully we’ll go through all of them) the ones to discuss during the session tomorrow, where we will talk about how we intentionally adapt when a challenge comes up. Also, if you haven’t posted your challenges, please do so.

See you all tomorrow!
