For the first part of the course, I would like you to read at least one (but feel free to read as many as you like) article below. I would then like you to share your reflections on the article in our community forum, using the 3As protocol.
The 3 A’s Protocol
One of our principles is that we want to layer in tools throughout this course which you can use straight away! So, we would like you to read the articles using the ‘3 A’s Protocol’ below.
