Optional Activity: Building a Personal Learning Network (PLN)

Photo by: NordWood Themes on Unsplash

Learning Outcome: Practice digital, networked, and open literacies in support of learning about distributed and open learning.

Personal learning networks (PLN's) allow you to personalize your experience and choose the way you interact with people and content. With an understanding of privacy regulations, and how to interact safely and respectfully online, PLN's can be an opportunity to collaborate, communicate, and collect resources. Through my experience building a network, I have connected with new educators and gained insightful knowledge about teaching. I look forward to continuing the use of these platforms to be a part of the online open education community.

Below I have hyperlinked my personal learning networks.
