So I loved putting all of my PLN's together on one page.


I couldn't believe all of the great things that I have started in the last 7 weeks.  I have to say that I am most impressed with my Twitter page that I have just started using.  I have always been opposed to using Twitter.  I never saw much purpose in it and didn't want to take the time out of my life to actually check it out.  I am so glad that I have been forced into using it.  I have found a lot of different pages/people to follow.  I have learned about so many other different resources out there that I never new existed.  I really enjoyed being able to follow the conversations from the METC conference.  I was able to see what was going on in other sessions.

I have also found that Delicious is a great tool to use to help save different links that I find useful.  I am able to save the links in different categories.  It makes it easy to retrieve great sights that I want to use at a later time.

I wish I would have known about Feedly in my last class.  It makes following multiple blogs very easy.  I found it very hard to follow several different classmates blogs last class.  This puts them all in one place and very convenient

Needless to say, I am very excited about all of the different PLN's I am utilizing.  They have made my life as a a teacher much easier.  I am able to get new ideas that I would have never thought of on my own.

  1. What a great idea for you "visual", I really like it. I also can't believe everything we have done in this class over the past 7 weeks. Seems to have flown by!
