I was honored to have been interviewed for Educational Leadership, ASCD's flagship magazine, on the power of Twitter as part of a Personal Learning Network (PLN). As you will see, the true power of connected learning is what you glean from the people you engage with. You can read the article HERE. Balance is key.

During my early years of blogging I always posted each post to my personal Facebook page and emailed my parents a live link. After a recent keynote presentation I was reflecting on the fact that I hadn’t spoken to them upon returning from Turkey a few days earlier. Everything we do in education is for our students.

I was also adamant that social media had no place in an educational setting, but most of you who read this blog know about my radical change of mind in regards to this. To put it bluntly, no educational organizations in NJ would have even thought of approaching me to talk about the innovative use of technology at my school.

On a crisp, sunny Saturday morning in October, approximately 400 passionate educators congregated at New Milford High School for the Tri-State Educational Technology Conference (TSETC).

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 looked down the table and thought to myself, how did I get here?

Oh and in the small print I said 3 important things - Change your passwords twice a year, have a different password for Facebook that you don''t use for ANYwhere else because FB''s security is notoriously craptastic (and the bank, too), and as a disclaimer - I''m not a security expert and nothing is foolproof.

Building a Social Network creates a positive web presence for any organization. It allows educators to create a positive digital footprint for themselves before they venture out into the read-write wiki sticky web. Some educators don''t want to mix their social Facebook with their professional life. I know i don''t!

There was a session lead by Jon Becker on whether or not we should use the term PLN (for Personal Learning Network). Each session I attended was like none I have ever been to anywhere before.

Overall, educators need to understand some basics about technology and that it is not a be-all-end-all solution to everything in a classroom. Here''s my list.

Today’s classrooms have more devices, more educational software, more opportunities to differentiate learning based on various student needs, and educators are under more pressure to do more, preferably as fast as possible, with excellent results. However, there is a silver lining. Define what teachers really need.
