Learning Discussion
Discussion Group Leader: Pamela Sheffler
Email: pshef001@ucr.edu
As you are aware, the Opal Intervention classes were cancelled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We understand this may be a stressful and anxious time for many as you adjust to this rapidly evolving situation. Although we will no longer be meeting in person, we encourage you to continue engaging with the course materials. For the discussion section, the remaining slides will be posted so that you can continue to learn the concepts, watch the videos, and complete the course assignments. We wish you all the best in your pursuit of lifelong learning. Stay healthy, keep learning, and don’t give up!
