Studies have shown that carousels are the most engaging type of post on the platform.
One of the most effective techniques: know your audience and talk directly to them as individuals.
you’re leading with the most compelling information or image for the reader, and think about “what’s in it for them” throughout the carousel.
add a visual signal in the images, like an arrow pointing to the right in all but the final image.

my annotations here:
Rather than asking if online education is going to replace “traditional” education, institutions need to think through how different modalities can meet student needs.
