\u201cI have checked out lynda.com and found many videos and courses of interest \u2013 both for my work and for personal use.\u00a0 For example, there are courses that offer tutorials and instruction on software that I use in my classes, courses on teaching online – providing ideas to enhance my delivery, and photography courses for my personal interest.\u00a0 Like all of us, time is at a premium, so I have bookmarked some of these courses and started viewing others in those spare moments.\u00a0 lynda.com is a very useful resource.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>“A course that really stood out for me was on Creating a Culture of Learning<\/a> and a particular section that links the success of a person or organization to a growth mindset. \u00a0Learning Strategist, Britt Andreatta, PhD, \u00a0provides great insight into how organizations and institutions can shape a learning culture that creates opportunities for continuous learning and growth.”<\/em><\/p>\n
