My conclusion regarding the course so far is that you have to get involved. I’m one of these people who sit on the outskirts of things and try to do it all myself. I read postings and feel very exposed when I make comments or add something to someone’s blog. I feel exposed now!
Anyway I now plan to make this my professional blog. I will rename it after the course and I will start blogging. Because of this course I now have a blog, I have joined twitter and renewed my aquaintance with Ning and Facebook. I still prefer Facebook over Ning. I am going to follow Joyce Seitzinger’s blog and the one recommended by Anton in my online meeting George Siemens. I know this is only a small beginning but I do now feel inspired to source my own PLN and use the networking tools that are all around me.

You’re right…you get out of your PLN what you put in. What I recommend is that you do the ‘connectivism course’ George runs next year. That will give you the theory behind networking and give you the opportunity to meet new people: http://ltc.umanitoba.ca/connectivism/

Don’t forget to link to the people and sites you’re talking about so we can see who/what you’re talking about 🙂

Thanks Sarah, will do. Just need to figure out how…actually that wasn’t that hard to do. Just need Anton’s proper URL…
