What is a
PLN – Personal Learning Network
A PLN is a combination of tools that use social media to
collect, communicate, collaborate and create with others with whom you share professional interests.
Blogs
Subscribe to many, good for inspiration and ideas- takes 10
minutes or less to read the headlines-keeps one abreast of issues
Google+
Join many, very good for direct questions – i.e. what is a
good site for explaining binary numbers?
Twitter
Very popular way for teachers to have access to information
basics-put your picture out there, follow a few people and
they will follow you, it is ok to lurk and just listen to conversations, jump
in when you are ready.
