Reinventing the wheel is not always necessary and I feel that if we can pull resources together in a single spot where educators can rely on, it will maybe take a little off their plates on a daily basis. One less thing for them to worry about.
If you feel that anyone may need access to the Moodle page, just direct them over to it and have them take a gander!
Thanks for taking the time to look at the resources!
