Hi Melissa!

Thanks for sharing such an engaging post! I really like your section on inclusivity and UDL in PLNs. You used really great examples for each of the 3 portions which helped the concept come to life. I also liked that you tied in a reflection about growing up in a diverse country like Canada – I think it is important to consider and tie in social cultures/norms into the work we do. You also do a great job at sharing your experiences using social media for academic purposes which have also led you to make friends in your program. This shows how PLNs can foster professional and personal growth, often at the same time! I was wondering if there have been any barriers in using reddit and instagram for academic learning, such as credibility of sources?

Thanks again for sharing!

Bailey
