One of the best things about my experience with the
professional learning networks is that I was able to share this information
with others on my campus. I got teachers
involved who had no idea some of these networks even existed. From the time I told them to now, I have had
so many people respond with such positive feedback! I also shared Digg with my students so that
they would be able to access stories and news about current events without
going from one website to another and had a lot of them put the app on their
smart phone. As far as myself is
concerned, I did like the RSS feeds the most.
It is simple and I am able to access what I want to read about in no
time flat. The affinity group is still
new to me and I haven’t really started to explore that as much as I would like
to, it’s on my things to do list over the winter break. I have been on twitter for a while now, but
never post anything. I don’t care to
have followers, I just want to keep updated.
I check this more often than I check my email or any other of my news
feeds, including RSS. I did start a
separate account for just education.
Trying to keep my private life from my professional life separate. I am a big believer in this, it’s part of who
I have always been, but with so many teachers adding students and students that
just graduate, I just can’t do it. The
new twitter account has been off to a slow start, but I see myself using it a
lot and actually posting information to share.
I feel like being a teacher for 10 years now, I have some ideas I would
like to share that have helped my become a better teacher, some from what
others have passed on to me, and some I have figured out myself. I have some lesson plans that I think are
golden and wouldn’t mind sharing them with others
