Nätverksplattformen är en viktig grund för att lärandet ska kunna utvecklas, vi ser dock lite annorlunda på tid och resurser då teorin säger att den är tidskrävande, medan vi menar motsatsen. Vi anser även att Nätverksplattformen behöver kompletteras. Här utgör bland annat struktur och rutiner en vikti
