Back to the Future
BycwardWelcome to co-creators Dani (darwinsfrog), Cory (corythestumpf), and Mona (mohall2015)! So, we moved back to this, our previous, wordpress site.

Workflow Emails to Production
BycwardNew process! Don’t include OL_Production on editing workflow emails. This refers to introductory emails (“I’ve begun editing…”) and the final emails (“files are in pre-production folder…”). Keep writing notes for Production on the files, and summarize any concerns in your final email to Curriculum Services. CS will send the notes to Production after sign-off.
