Use the Power of Twitter to Build Your Personal Learning Network « I Teach Ag... - 0 views

  • Professional Learning Community (PLC), the idea of the PLC is the entire staff would have the same goals and expectations for the school, students and learning on campus.  For myself, the idea of a PLN is the building block to a better PLC.  Everyone is their own individual with their own ideas and backgrounds, meaning everyone will have their own PLN (that’s why it’s a “personal” learning network).  If every teacher can bring their own PLN, we make a larger, more experienced PLC.
  • What is educhat? It is a way that anyone interested in educational technology can come together and talk through Twitter.  Everyone involved in the discussion uses the hash tag #educhat.  A hash tag allows you to follow the discussion of all the individuals, whether or not you are officially “following” them

2¢ Worth » Predictions Questions about the Next Decade - 0 views

  • Are we (teachers) going to become digital users or subscribers?  For decades we have been comfortable using packaged instructional content (textbooks, etc.) to help students learn, and this was probably necessary in closed learning environments.
  • What’s to come of social networking? Will we, as a larger defining education community, come to accept social learning techniques and integrate them, or will we continue to fear and block these opportunities?
  • Just how much influence might I have, as a teacher, on the learning that my students are engaged in outside of my classroom and outside of the school’s bell schedule? How might emerging ICTs enable more interesting and potent learning experiences beyond the confines of traditional schooling? How responsible am I to pursue these opportunities or do I continue to follow the traditional role of teacher and leave tech and the networks to the “natives?”

Tech How To: Podcasts | Scholastic.com - 0 views

  • Every week, Paul Bogush’s eighth-grade social studies students in Wallingford, Connecticut, get an opportunity that would be rare in a tech-free classroom. The kids take 20 minutes during lunch to interview career mentors—such as the dean of the Yale University School of Nursing—on the phone, in person, or over Skype. Then they share the interviews with the world in a podcast called Lunchtime Leaders.
