Q. I work for a school/university — how should I share this?

A. You can share this in multiple ways with your students, for example hosting this on the relevant section of your website and intranet or including it in a newsletter – it’s up to you.

Q. Where should I publish my blog post?

A. You should publish your post on your personal blog. If you don’t already have one, you can set one up very easily. You can use a site, like Medium, or set up your own using a free hosting provider – there are plenty to choose from.
