The Distance Learning Packs collection includes assorted resources that lack a theme or guiding question to the packs. From a pedagogical standpoint, resource packs should require these in order to provide instructional purpose and coherence that makes for effective learning design.
Additionally, the materials found in these packs are not unique to the Distance Learning collection. All included resources are already available elsewhere within Raz-Plus, making the packs redundant.
