Reflect, Share, and Plan your Next Move!
It’s time to see how far you’ve come! Without the important step of reflection, the learning process is not complete. As Sean Michael Morris notes; “To reflect is to enter a space of co-incidence, where the beginning of the learning process, and its end, meet to consult about the result of that process.”
Now is the time to take a deep breath and think about the different ways you have expanded your PLN, and your PLN engagement, in order to better visualize what can be improved.
Over the course of this class you learned to interact with others in a variety of different spaces. You learned how to enhance the diversity, dynamism, and depth of your PLN. Hopefully, you were able to access new tools (e.g., teaching strategies, lesson plans, online resources, confidence, emotional support) throughout this journey (Krutka, Carpenter & Trust, 2017).
Take a look at how others describe PLNs to help you with your reflection:
- Personal Learning Networks video
- What is a PLN – Marc-Andre Lalande’s take
- What is a PLN – Avi Spector’s take video
- How to improve a PLN video
It’s always important to take a moment to reflect, to see how far you’ve come, think about what you could do better, and what you’d like to work on more to be able to achieve your goals.
