Personal Learning Network and your Performance

A PLN can be a great addition to your online portfolio to support your resume or your performance review. Your PLN is personal, portable and easy to maintain. It also demonstrates your understanding and recognition of the importance of having a professional online presence as well as the technical skills required to build and maintain this online environment.

In this short video I share 7 easy ways to get started. You can choose to use one of the tools or a combination. Remember, everyone’s network will look and function differently.

If you want to find out more about learning and leading through your PLN, then join me on 25 April or 26 April. I’ve set up three difference times, so you should be able to find a time that suits you to connect in for the one hour webinar.

The use of mobile devices is growing exponentially across society.

Our young people (and their families) are not immune to this increasing “hunger” to be connected at any time, at any place and within any space.  At the same time, parents are calling for elements, such as cyber-safety, to be taught to their children, similar to the “stranger danger” of previous times.

Cyber-safety cannot be taught in isolation.

Other elements of being a digital citizen cannot be taught in isolation.

This free webinar will explore 5 essential components of digital citizenship in the context of current educational discussions. I will identify the crucial curriculum framework connections and address the importance of working towards integration and inclusion of digital citizenship essentials.

Title:    A Point of View on Digital Citizenship Essentials
Date:    Wednesday, August 24, 2011
Time:    8:00 PM – 9:00 PM AEST

Look forward to seeing you online soon.

Framework for digital literacy

Here is a snip from the previous Webinar where June provided an overview on this topic.

Now, I have asked June to take this content to another level.  The “Developing a framework for digital literacy in your school” is in response to the answers attendees provided to this question following the delivery of “A Point of View on Digital Literacy” – “What would you like to explore further on the topic of the webinar?”

Here is an overview of some of the content that will be covered in this webinar:

  • How to identify the most important elements of a digital literacy framework.
  • A process to determine the ICT model that will fit your school.
  • The “short, sharp and shiny” ideas to capture the attention of teachers so they will fully engage.
  • How to encourage teachers to use digital formats in their teaching and learning programs.
  • A way to bring the school community on board so this is a whole school project.
  • The background to successful projects undertaken with teachers at her school.
  • Discover how the personal learning network connects with this framework.
  • REVEALED! The major challenges confronted during the development phase.

And that’s just a fraction of what you’ll find out at the “Developing a framework for digital literacy in your school” webinar.

Don’t miss out on this webinar on Wednesday, 4 May.  More information is available at http://www.schoollibrarymanagement.com/digital-literacy

Look forward to connecting with you then.

Education webinar on digital literacy

Digital literacy is a buzz word just as much as transliteracy and digital media literacy. Here is one point of view on the topic.

Now, I’ve taken this a bit further and developed a webinar series called “A Point of View.” The topic for the month of April is digital literacy.  Each month I will have a different topic, but for now I’ve sourced a knowledgeable colleague who will present a concise and succinct presentation on this topic. I’ve given her a set of questions to answer and, if time allows, she will take questions during the webinar.

Here’s a quick overview of the format:

  • How to get access to the latest information
  • Simple ways to get to the heart of the content without having to read & research
  • Learn how to avoid the mistakes
  • Find out how to get started without going through the pain
  • Steps to identifying who should be involved in your projects
  • Common problems that can cause you to stumble
  • Hot tips on how to survive
  • Key strategies to make sure you don’t waste your time doing what others have done

So, if you missed out on the webinar, then head on over to the webinar archive.

This is what an attendee shared after the last webinar.
“Thank you for these resources and for offering the opportunity to be part of the webinar. It was a very interesting and thought-provoking presentation. I took many of the ideas to work the next day and tossed them around…some we are doing (but perhaps had not really identified their value?) but many more have given us food for thought.” [Judy Bolton, Queensland].

It is great to get this type of feedback as well as many suggestions for other topics. I hope you will join me next Wednesday.

What people say …

We have already used a lot of the information from the education webinars, most recently in a meeting with the Head of Teaching & Learning. I can't begin to tell you how useful the webinars and your website have been to date and will be to the future of our work.
