A PLN (Personal Learning Network) is a network where you can connect with people, can share ideas, and find new resources. I did not know that I was previously using a PLN until today. I never knew that Twitter, Facebook, and Myspace were considered a PLN. My PLN will most likely start off with have Twitter or my Facebook account on it. I believe I can use a PNL in a classroom very effectively to share information all around the world with my class and even their parents. In
A Seventh graders PLN you can see how a PLN can work and see how easy it is to use. I think I can also use all of my C4"s , C4K's C4T's and C4C's, to help me out even though they are different countries, ages, and even races that is one of the most important steps into forming a PLN is people.
I did not know about it either. I want to start to also to use my Twitter account to start my PLN. I never thought about using my C4's. That was a great idea.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know that I wasn't the only one who didn't about PLN. Its a great way to learn.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to use C4k and C4t.
Remember that Twitter is not a PLN in itself. Facebook is also not a PLN in itself. Twitter and Facebook are just websites you use to help create and organize your PLN.
