What is PLN?
0PLN is YOUR Personal Learning Network.

What My PLN Includes:
0Twitter
0Pinterest
0Youtube
0Facebook
0Google Docs
0 Internet search engines
0Twitter is used as a micro- blog.
0 It is a service where friends, family and CO-WORKERS
can communicate and stay connected with
educational ideas and resources.
0 I follow fellow teachers and educational micro- blogs
that will assist in learning.
0Pinterest is a visual take on social bookmarking.
0 It is an online pin board where you can learn and
share educational tips and resources.
0Using pinterest as a PLN can help with gaining
knowledge and resources from other teachers that
can be used in the classroom.
Youtube
0Youtube is an online resource which allows billions of
people to discover, watch and share originally created
videos.
0The forum allows people to connect, inform and
inspire others across the globe.
0Youtube is a useful tool that allows teachers to
connect and share teaching tips which will enhance
the classroom.
0Facebook is the worlds most popular social
networking website.
0 It makes it easy for you to connect and share with
friends, family and CO-WORKERS online.
0Using Facebook for your PLN can be very effective
with helping you learn, connect and share ideas and
resources with fellow teachers.
0Google docs are an online word processor that allows
you to create and format different kinds of online
documents.
0 It allows you to collaborate with others in real time.
0Using Google docs as part of your PLN can enhance your
knowledge and the way you collaborate with others.
0 It also allows you to share resources and online tools
with others.
Internet0Different internet search engines can help expand your
PLN.
0Dogpile is the search engine that I like to use because it
gathers all the best results form other search engines
including Google and yahoo. It looks at these results and
decides which ones are the most relevant to your search.
It compiles all the best results in one place that is easy
to access.
0 This can help expand your PLN it can also find and
connect with fellow teachers.
