Collaboration

Collaboration
=== Collaboration is an important skill in today's world where teams of people from all over the world work together to develop products and resources or to find solutions. Students must learn these skills in order to be prepared for the future. Collaboration is important for teachers as well, as they can connect with other teachers, parents, and community members to provide a rich learning experience for their students.
