We discuss the trends and issues we observed during the weeks of November 9-23 as we flipped resources into our Flipboard magazine (http://bit.ly/trendsandissues). We have three trends that we discuss. There were a number of resources we flipped that showed unique uses of VR by companies (e.g. Volvo). The second trend are a variety of resources about online teaching and learning.  The last trend is reviews and discussion of Apple products: specifically, the iPad Pro and the Apple Pencil.

We have two recommended readings for the week.
