- Ignore the key metric of the industry
- Lab behind in almost every way
- Stay lean and risk-tolerant
- Focus on the one are in which they outperform the market leader

Rachel opening her presentation.
Talking about questions to think about for social media.
Currently in pilot mode, Rachel talked about an instructor site issued to layout plans for courses, will eventually have all instructors use the site. Prepared for the pilot by doing live demos to educate the team, also by using the technology for live meetings and posted tips about the product they were using.
When instructor did not participate, students did not participate. Also found that the more people in a site the more participation you get. Can’ wait for the first session to start the dialogue–start about a week before the session to get people involved.

When are learners thinking about the content until it starts to build knowledge.
