The document discusses using a variety of tools to meet different learning needs, noting that what works for one student or teacher may not work for others. It provides examples of online tools and resources for teaching including Twitter, blogs, Google apps, and social bookmarking sites. Recommendations are made to choose tools suitable for the intended learning outcomes and to expand one's professional learning network to access more educational resources.

2. Aware of difference
-students, learning groups, educators, schools
This is stating the obvious, however what works for
one may not work for another. Keep learning
outcome in mind, then choose tool suitable.
Plethora of tools out there! (basket analogy)

3. Heaps of resources –basket too small? Overflowing?
Lose handy resources? Need bigger basket – your PLN
and the web!
Use of bluetack by Mr 4 while Mummy prepared
presentation –sun and face! Highlights people see and
use resources very differently..

4. Twitter + blogs
Why Twitter- easy access, where ever, whenever, share links,
resources, ideas, 24/7, dabble as much or little as you like
Unsure why people so anti twitter- use when YOU need
_YOU control it. Have a go! Check it out. WHY NOT?
