  • Access to information and people is intoxicating.
  • We are obligated to maintain balance in who we are, what we value, and equally the value we invest in the communities in which we participate.
  • Information overload is a symptom of our desire to not focus on what’s important.” It’s a choice.

  • the heart of PLN is the concept of people who connect together to help each other grow and learn.
  • The technology comes in because it is a tool that can help you to connect to those people and it can help you process the information you get from those people into meaningful and hopefully useful knowledge.
  • PLN can help. They can point you to the right articles, the best sources of information and guide you along the way, so that you save time and access the highest quality resources

  • In order to truly develop I believe you need apply some critical thinking to that information, try to apply what you have learned to your own context and most of all feed what you have learned about the information back into the global community from which your PLN was formed.
  • first of those and probably the most useful is Twitter
  • Recommended Twitter people

      Can you see the highlighted part? I did that with a highlighting tool. The tools alone that are available with diigo are very useful. I have installed the toolbar in google chrome. I have also set this note so that only people in the PLN group would see it

  • Another changing paradigm in education is the demand for differentiated and individualized instruction. The challenge in this environment is how to manage appropriate information flow for each individual learner without the educator working one-at-a-time guiding each learner along a prepared path followed by assessing the learner's progress and understanding.

    great slides on digital curation.  The what, why and how.
  • Jodie R on 06 Jul 12
     
    I particularly like the circular graphic on the curation process as it emphasizes that curation should not stop at just collecting "stuff". It is what one does with the curated information that becomes valuable to the individual and others. I would like to create a unit in an English course on curation. Keep your eye out for any good examples out there!
