Our Personal Learning Network

Building our own PNL (Personal Learning Network) is essential for teachers. PLNs are networks or connections that you can have in order to connect with other people or experts of the field you are interested in, share ideas and learn from them and help others. You can get in touch with different people by creating your own Personal Learning Environment, which consists of different webtools that the owner of the PLE makes use of. PLN are highly important since the learning comes from connecting with other people, in this case, online. Thanks to our PLE you can get in touch with other schools abroad and start school link projects that can enrich our students’ (and our own, why not?) learning.

Thanks to this subject, I’ve created my own PLN, which consists of several webtools for different purposes and I have also learnt how to curate the many websites I come across. This will work as a springboard to later enable me to develop professionally by getting in touch with content-area specialists and learn about new technology and how to integrate it into my teaching: my students, grateful!
