Hinweis der Redaktion
- Who do you learn from?
- Books
- TV, radio and newspapers
- Colleagues
- Family
- Strangers
- The typical teacher network looks a lot like this. Notice how more than half the arrows are only one directional.
- But this is a teacher with a strong, diverse network. Notice how most of the arrows are now two directional.
- But there’s so much out there. How do I take it all in?
- Quote about walking into a library and your head exploding.
- Your network can turn that fire hose into a garden hose. Your network can act as your filter. It’s really no different than friends recommending a book to read or a show to watch. You don’t read or watch everything, but you take recommendations more seriously from those you have some trust in (they read or watch things that you like).
- Small glimpse of my network. Educators, politicians, great thinkers, news organizations, companies, celebrities, friends
- Yes, but where do I even start?
- Use an RSS to make everything come to you – news, blog updates, changes to wikis, podcasts, Twitter updates and on and on.
- Blog about your professional development, blog with info for your students, blog about a hobby (but keep them separate)
- Students are learning to blog very young - to keep their parents informed about what they’re doing in school
- University student using her blog as an e-portfolio
- Access your bookmarks wherever you are. Share resources with colleagues and students.
- Chat, talk and video. Hold virtual office hours with students or colleagues. Bring in guest speakers.
- Follow, contribute, ask questions or offer a solution ...
- Share your pictures and find others to use in presentations, etc. via Flickr
- Find interesting videos via YouTube. This is one we’re using in our Library Tech course.
- Khan Academy - Salman Khan is a Bangladeshi American born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana.[2] His father hails from Barisal, Bangladesh.[2][3] Khan holds three degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology: a BS in mathematics, a BS in electrical engineering and computer science, and an MS in electrical engineering and computer science. He also holds an MBA from Harvard Business School. In late 2004, Khan began tutoring his cousin in mathematics using Yahoo!'s Doodle notepad. When other relatives and friends sought his tutorage, he decided it would be more practical to distribute the tutorials on YouTube.[4][3] Their popularity there and the testimonials of appreciative students prompted Khan to quit his job in finance in 2009 and focus on the Academy full-time.

- 3rd party tools can have their problems – Ning started charging and Bloglines shut down.
- Great for staying in touch, especially with those far away, but there have been privacy issues
- Don’t be frightened. You don’t have to do it all at once. You don’t have to do it all, period.
