PERSONAL LEARNING NETWORKS

What is my personal learning network

Personal Learning Networks, or PLNs, have been around forever.  Originally, they were your family and friends, maybe other educators you worked with, but as the internet and web 2.0 tools have become nearly ubiquitous, PLNs can include tons of different communities – social networking sites like Facebook, blogs, Twitter, wikis, social bookmarking tools, LinkedIn, and so many more.  

WHAT MY PLN INCLUDES:

FACEBOOK TWITTER BLOGGER GOOGLE DOCS SKYPE SLIDESHARE YOUTUBE

TWITTER

WHATS GREAT ABOUT TWITTER? Loads of twitter Many great educators It`s very quick and easy to write a tweet Great with portable devices It is a service where friends, family and CO-

WORKERS can communicate and stay connected with educational ideas and resources

I follow fellow teachers and educational micro-blogs that will assist in learning.

☻ YOUTUBE is a useful tool that allows teachers to connect and share teaching tips which will enhance the classroom.

☻ YOUTUBE is a online resource which allows billions people to discover, watch and share originally created videos.

☻ I learn new vocabulary with lyrics in karaoke, we can share videos on other social networks tutorial videos uploaded by any subject users themselves.

FACEBOOK is my favorite social network, because I communicate with my friends, I meeting new friends, old friends. to keep in communication with peers and family is very important, we keep informed newspaper applications, we can share videos from YOUTUBE, and I can improve vocabulary when we chat with people, FUN ENGLISH for me are the best, with this page I learn grammar, new vocabulary, etc.

I use this page for many activities: I can express my own ideas, I can upload documents in english, I can share information with my friends, I can log in to Blogger with your Google Account - which also gives you access to Gmail, iGoogle, orkut, etc.

SKYPE Video calling gets you connected

immediately, with just a click of a button and a steady internet connection. You can contact your friends around the world and become more actively involved in the lives of those you care about. The personal touch that a video call can make in online interactions makes Skype’s video calling better than other forms of mobile conversations.Skype’s video calling can be used for a lot of purposes, whether it be personal or business.

GOOGLE Docs

It allows you to collaborate with others in real time.

Google docs are online word processor that allows you to create and format different kinds of online documents.

I Using GOOGLE docs as part my PLN I can enhance your knowledged and the way and I collaborate with others
