In this rapidly changing world, learning is no longer restricted to an event bound by space and time. Thanks to the World Wide Web, the ability to build our very own personal learning network (PLN) of peers, authors and experts is just a click away. Whether you are just beginning to build your network or have already started on this journey, this workshop will show you how to tap into a flow of conversation that is driven by your interests and passions. Participants will gain hands-on experience using Twitter, social media software, to help them construct and cultivate their own personal learning network.

Goals for Workshop

Participants will have a deeper understanding of the value of personal learning networks.

Participants will know what Twitter is and how to use it to connect with others and grow professionally.
