A personal learning network (PLN) allows educators to connect, collaborate, and contribute online. Key tools for organizing a PLN include Evernote for saving ideas, Animoto for creating slideshows, and Prezi for interactive presentations. To build a PLN, educators should pick interesting blogs to read regularly, leave comments, and follow education experts on Twitter. Additional resources for researching within a PLN are custom Google searches, Google features like timeline, and curated websites with web tools and streaming media for teachers.
