How To Build Your PLN (Professional Learning Network) - YouTube - 0 views

  •  
    This video by Seth Dickens poses two questions 1) What do I know that could be shared? and 2) What do I want to learn? While I might disagree with the order, the rest of the video (about 4 minutes long) does a beautiful job of explaining what a learning (professional or personal) network is and what it allows one to do to connect purposeful and learn.

And yet Rich is careful to counter any misperception that taking
