Engage and Inspire Learners - virtually!

Most people like me would think this is easy especially when circumstances change and we have to adapt our teaching methods; it recently happened to us when the learning and teaching environment was downsized and we moved into a block with limited space and therfore limited lecture halls. Obviously, we started delivering lectures online using Webex but not sure if we gave much thought to engagement and inspiration!. This lecture has really given me a jolt about what is it that broadcasters do to keep their numbers up! BBC? CNN?

My Support Network

This is a poster created in Glogster where I describe My reflection on:
• the range of support networks that are available to me both within and outside my organisation (offline and online)
• how I access specialist advice/further training
• how I keep up to date with current developments in my field
• what review mechanisms are available to me to help you upgrade my skills and knowledge
• how I evaluate current and future needs and keep abreast of evolving trends

Building my own PLN

I have decided to move into the fast lane and join the big boys driving flashy, whizzy fast cars.  Here's how I start - build my own Professional Learning Network  where I mix and mingle with the select few and then extend my tentacles to reach for the skies.

1. Social Networking and Personal Learning Environments


2. PLN Me!
3. Building a PLN with Web 2.0
4. From PLE Building to PLN Forming


5. PLEs


6. New tools for personal learning
