These may include both resources created by NTCF participants and also external material. They may be works of art, books, papers, videos, podcasts, webinars, weblinks etc.
Resources that are primarily of interest at the group level should be posted in the Project Documents of the relevant group.
Please choose a category and use tags when you add a new resource. Categories without NTCF in their names are for external materials.
If you have created the resource please use the Author Bio field so that your name and profile image appear with it. If you're recommending a resource, consider identifying yourself in in the text of the post.
If your resource involves uploading a file, please be aware that the size limit is 7mb. File storage for this site is not free, and Ning imposes a file size limit to help us stay within our storage quota. A positive aspect of the limit is that it reminds us to be mindful of our digital carbon footprint.
