The document discusses the professional learning network (PLN) of an educator. It describes several organizations and individuals that are part of the educator's PLN, including the Alberta Teacher Association, Danny Mass, and 2learn.ca society. These PLN resources provide updates on educational news, technology tips for teachers, and research-based teaching resources.

@cralphedu
 Twitter is a good place to have your PLN because it allows for
tailoring. You can expand/remove the resources that you feel/don’t
feel are productive to your professional development
