Thank you for the comment, Sara! I like how you phrased this, “I too want my students to know I am sensitive to their needs and am prepared to meet them where they are so I can provide the best experience possible for each and every individual.” You couldn’t have said it any better. I think the students would appreciate the effort, even in cases where it is insufficient.

Thanks, Sarah! I am beginning to connect with people in my field on LinkedIn, and my posts on LinkedIn have been generating some attention. I also registered with Researchgate a couple of days ago. I am learning to put myself out there. Thanks for the tips!
