MISSION: PAIR - SHARE

Rookie and Veterans learn better together

Want to make sense out of this digital world Feeling a bit like a novice (or perhaps a pro). Instead of being overwhelmed with everything, let's start with what you know. You'll respond to a #mliteracy #rookie #veteran question and then find someone who you can work together and form a rookie / veteran pair share. As partners you'll start to assist each other to manage a deluge of information.
