I always love Sylvia Duckworth's graphics and illustrations! She does a great job creating a visual display of a concept. I also like that they included that a PLN allows for a lot of choice - who to connect with, how much you want to add, and you can take away as much or as little as you like. Thanks for a great link, Lindsay!
Love the graphic at the top of this article along with the all of the amazing resources that go along with each part of the graphic. I look forward to being able to explore all of the links to see how I can apply the information.
Awesome graphic! I agree with all the content here. I think being able to have a space like the PLN for a teacher is efficient for just about everything. Especially in regard to inspiration. Inspiration can be accomplished so quickly within PLNs. Thanks for this awesome share!
