Through a Tweet by Steven Anderson (follow him if you don't) I learned about a great slide presentation created by Bethany Smith (another person you should follow on Twitter) about creating an online personal learning network (PLN). The presentation tells the story of how Bethany created her PLN before moving on to showing you how to create your own online PLN.
The presentation is embedded below.
Applications for Education
Some of the best lesson plans I've developed over the years have been the result of exchanging ideas and collaborating with other teachers. Building an online PLN is a great way to exchange ideas with other educators and to collaborate with other educators.

Hello,
The links are really helpful which you have shared in your content. The presentation is really good and Bethany has done a great job. Thanks for sharing the idea of PLN here
Thanks for the post - I was wondering why my twitter followers were going up! I'd love to do an activity one day where we all can make a map about how twitter and our PLN connections have impacted us.
Hey, did everyone see that there is a "licensed teacher" twibbon at www.twibbon.com?
