My PLN
I have created my own PLN over time using a variety of technologies. I primarily use Twitter as I find it to be incredibly powerful in terms of creating connections with others. I have embedded a twitter hashtag search below. The hashtag is one I have been using with a group of colleagues in a grad class I am taking. We used Twitter to build a PLN by creating a group hashtag that allowed us to share ideas and resources with each other. (Bonus: If you scroll through the search there will be many more resources for building your own PLN)
I addition to Twitter I have also followed several boards on Pinterest and follow several blogs that further enhance my PLN. I have created a list of some of the people, organizations, boards and blogs that I follow below.
