Conferences are great ways to make lasting connections with people.to grow your personal learning network. Before the conference I had the chance to fly out to Colorado a few days early and spend time with people I had never met. Everyone in our group knew each other from Twitter. Because I do know them.

So many resources are being shared daily on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. You can either lurk and learn or develop your own Personal Learning Network (PLN) to farm the best ideas and strategies that are actually working in similar demographics. This definitely applies now.

We had a vibrant conversation on the topic of Digital Leadership with a focus on school culture, embracing change, strategic use of social media, the Model Schools Conference , and innovation. Will and I met virtually on Twitter way back in 2009. At the time he was known as @peoplegogy on Twitter.

Up until this point I really didn’t have a clue as to what it was all about except that it was a social media tool that functioned like an electronic bulletin board. As I began to piece together resources on Personal Learning Networks(PLN’s) , I lost track of time and ended staying up well past my bedtime.

What I really enjoyed was there were so many people there that I knew because of social media. Members of my PLN (Personal Learning Network), PLC (Professional Learning Community), colleagues, whatever you want to call them, (I call them all friends) were there sharing their learning with not only the new teachers, but with me as well.

I remember those days as well, since I was on Twitter years before my friend. Sharing Is Not Bragging.

However, the mounting pressure from ridiculous mandates as a result of the current education reform movement and massive budget cuts across the country, have made it a challenge to learn through traditional pathways. Without funding, many districts no longer allow leaders to travel to national/state conferences or even attend local workshops.

Social media: platforms like Twitter help teachers build their personal learning network and share teaching tips and tricks. Discussions can be synchronous (via video conference) or asynchronous (via an online forum). Some of them prefer to seek classroom collaborations directly.

I guess at least some of this action was generated by a proclaimed “national unfollow day” that was made up and broadcast out by someone with a little media influence.

Leveraging relationships with educators One of the most simple ways to begin to breakdown your classroom walls is to build a strong PLN, or Personal Learning Network. A personal learning network is made up of people/places you go to gain knowledge, share knowledge and collaborate with others of like minds and interests.
