Part 2 of Blogpost # 5

     Before I started EDM 310, I had never even heard of a PLN.  Just by commenting on teacher's blogs this semester, I have had conversations with different educators from two different continents. By creating relationships like this, you now have a broader connection with educators that can help you through your transition from student to educator. I think these relationships are important because they allow for some relief in an already hectic world. I can now share my propossed teaching lesson to multiple educators and get incredible feedback. It is also a way for educators to share ideas and collaborate on ideas for lesson plans and methods of teaching. Since starting my PLN this semester, I have come across many ideas of how to make education fun by just following educators on facebook, twitter, and pinterest. I think my PLN will help me create some of the most incredible lesson plans, and projects for my students once I am employed as an educator. I will keep adding people and sites to my PLN in order to make my life as an educator more effective and fun for my students.
