After looking at the PLNs of some of my classmates I thinking that I may be getting bogged down by too much information. I'm getting information from many sources (my Feedly feeds, Google +, LinkedIn groups, Twitter). I find the data/information overwhelming. I'm going to focus on my areas of interests and making human connections (that is the point isn't it?) Filling my head with a bunch of information but not sharing it or using it to forward learning is just a self-indulgent exercise in busy work accomplishing nothing. I see LinkedIn as a powerful tool to find like-minded professionals and create connections sharing all this new information I am finding.

AuthorHi, I'm Lois and teaching is my final career. It is a privilege to help students to close the achievement gap. Too many learners, young and old alike, need new skills and new ways of learning to meet the demands and challenges of the information age. Archives
