Simple ideas for educators to grow their learning network, not matter what subject area is taught, what environment it is taught in, or the quality of the colleagues teaching next door.
This is an article I referenced and studied while completing a research paper on learning theories.
Interesting quick read about practically using and starting a PLN. I am glad to say that I am familiar with most of the suggestions he gives because of Boise State.
Interesting nontraditional way of arguing that teachers should start PLNs.
This is a rudimentary explanation of how a community of practice starts, is useful, and should be part of the school setting.
This article explains PLNs as a way to model connecting to our students as well as life long learning and growth.
Interesting read from the standpoint of arguing against other learning theories before presenting connectivism and then learning networks as a support to this theory of connectivsm.
How a community (a public, electronic one) can provide perspective, moral obligations, and by feeling connected to others, a sense of camaraderie.
I hear lots about PLNs and communities of practice in the educational realm, but I was looking for something outside of what I normally see. This talks about how a community of practice works in a fortune 100 company and why some people were nervous to contribute. I thought it was interesting that the reason people were nervous to contribute correlates with why students may hesitate to contribute to our classes or our online communities we set up for them.
This article examines a community of practice as a way to "reform professional practices" or to really give an authentic air to our students and colleagues.
