The role of Twitter in Personal Learning Networks

This qualitative phenomenological study involving in-depth interviews with seven educators in K-12 and higher education examines the role that the microblogging service Twitter plays in the formation and development of Personal Learning Networks (PLN) among educators. A double hermeneutic data analysis shows that Twitter plays a role in the formation and development of PLNs by allowing educators to; engage in consistent and sustained dialogue with their PLN, access the collective knowledge of their PLN, amplify and promote more complex thoughts and ideas to a large audience, and expand their PLN using features unique to Twitter. This research also examines the nature of a PLN and shows that participants believe their PLN extends beyond their Twitter network to encompass both face-to-face and other ICT mediated relationships. Secondary research questions examine how Twitter differs from other social networking tools in mediating relationships within a PLN, what motivates an educator to develop a PLN, how trust is established in a PLN, what the expectations of reciprocity are within a PLN, and what is the nature of informal learning within a PLN.

Learning About Blogs FOR Your Students- Part I: Reading | Langwitches Blog

When thinking about “BLOGGING” , the untrained eye (in regards to blogging) of an educator usually will think of “Technology Integration”. When digging a little deeper he/she might recognize that blogging is more about WRITING than technology.

The ‘little book of ICT ideas’ | TheTeacherBuzz.com

We love this document that Mark Anderson has produced for a training day at his school in North Somerset, UK. It succinctly provides the name of Web2.0 tools and gives you examples of how to use them...

 

From our experience teachers did need quick, easy and fast ways to connect to new technology ideas. We think Mark achieves this very well!

IgniteCast – Create and Embed Multimedia Presentations | Mark Brumley

I’m not sure why it took me so long to discover IgniteCast. This is now one of my favorite presentation composition tools.

You do have to download the application but it’s worth it. Add just about any type of media, including PowerPoint slides and arrange them in a very familiar, PowerPoint-like interface. The narration tool is excellent and is a great way to add your personality to the presentation. You can even add background music.
