And jumpstarting a PLN here is a much more delicate process because technology is a little further behind as well a collaborative concepts. I started my teachers first with a Ning social/professional network because it had a ready-made network with lots of historical activity to dig into. Then after they were comfortable with that, I moved on to Twitter and RSS, then blogging. Why not blogging first? Because I wanted then to feel around their new PLN and see some examples of blogging first. This coming year, we plan to tackle podcasting, digital stortelling and other such fun stuff. If I can get them into my Lively , that would be the icing in the cake.<br><br>When all is said and done, it is Twitter that is the glue that holds the other pieces together (and maybe just microblogging in general now that I have become a Plurker (karma approaching 60 thank you very much). While I have my own Ning where I started my team, , I probably would have used Classroom 2.0 as a launch point.<br><br>Frank" );

For example, some of my readers (and especially those colleagues that I am trying to wean onto the Internet) are not yet tech savvy. They don\'t have a Google Reader account, don\'t peruse their network\'s del.icio.us sharings, are not yet readind a breadth of blogs, because they don\'t quite have a sense of &quot;network&quot; nore using Web tools yet. They are developing. So, I want to give them exposure to more resources and widen their view, etc. The edublogosphere and edutech community can simply bypass those posts easy enough.<br><br>And for me, anything that can automate some tasks, well isn\'t that part of the beauty of technology?" );

document.write( "                <span class=\"comment\"> Thanks Sue .... I agree that the secret is to create a sizable enough network for twitter to make sense or to &quot;get&quot; it. Friend &quot;harvesting&quot; is the way to go, but aside from just sifting through another\'s follow list, I like to also check out @newperson that someone that I am following is currently chatting with. Then I can see how that person is interacting and what they are offering to the community, ie sharing links, stimulating thought, asking for guidance, etc. ... or just telling us what they ate for lunch. I use those indicators in my network selection process, too.<br><br>For those, like me, that don\'t like irritating pop-ups and sounds, and other visual-auditory distractors, the Flock Social Web Browser has a native twitter client tucked into it\'s People Side Bar .. and it does refresh and allow posting ... you can even drop &quot;snippets&quot; onto friends in your timeline to send them images, videos, and links and such." );

In class, if students are not engaged and the topic is not relevant to what they need, then they act out because they are bored and feel they are wasting time. There can be discipline problems. The interview was not matched to the audience\'s needs or profile; and that is the bottom line. I don\'t care if the interviewer is a man or a woman. If it isn\'t engaging, it isn\'t engaging. But like Robert has pointed out. Not all is lost, this is a learning experience for all. I bet she will do her homework next time, and consider the environment beyond herself." );

How do you divorce social, communication, networking, community building, etc, from the read/write/speak/listen Web?<br><br>Perhaps using the blogs/wikis etc. for social reasons, too, is OK as long as the teacher has some moderation/oversight availability.

I am VERY concerned about their ability and desire to maintain currency in their professional networks. I have always said as a teacher trainer that your best resource is not me (the trainer), it is another teacher out &quot;there&quot; teaching just as you are.<br><br>So tweet if you can because twitter offers &quot;just-in-time&quot; professional development and finger-tip resources, but if you can\'t then somehow a teacher MUST find those vehicles to keep current and sharing, yes every week... not at just the quarterly or monthly scheduled teacher training program or annual pedagogical roundup. So, how about popping into http://classroom20.ning.com, or http://metamexico.ning.com, or getting your google reader set to capture all the RSS &quot;goodies&quot; or setting up a del.cio.us network, and so on and so on. With a little setting up, all the information is waiting for you at the touch of a button, with or without twitter. <br><br>At least once a week, please...<br>Frank" );
