They chose an e-learning course with a very clever name, &#8216;Hoarding Frogs in a Wheelbarrow&#8217; (which does not sound easy!). It sounds like an interesting premise for a learning event and I think the observation that it is curated by only one person, thereby leaving it open to bias, is a valid one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The team\u2019s individual projects are as follows (Chaddock, 2022, para. 8):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>\u201cAlisha: How does engagement through social presence affect cognition?<\/li><li>Ben: How does the resource utilize constructivist and behaviourist learning methods?<\/li><li>Melissa: How do misinformation and bias affect resource quality (credibility &amp; accuracy), especially when community members are encouraged to contribute?<\/li><li>Sharmila: How do we define quality?
