I have used social networks as a source for students to interact. When students get involved with networking outside of the classroom, this has proven to be effective. Students in this new generation have found a new form of gaining self-confidence, and communicating with each other. It has proven to be a benefit because our new generation has grown to become accustomed to this way of working. I don't think that this is to effective because it takes away from the real-life interaction. I think that students will get a better result of learning from real-life interaction. Interactions on the net have shown to get much more participation but has not proven to being a better form of learning.
My experience of allowing students to use social networks as a form of communication has shown me that students will participate more with using these networks, but has not proven to me to be a better source of learning because it just is not as effective and does not allow more immediate feedback.
I attached a link to my PLN if interested.
I chose to begin a pearltree account. This PLN seemed a little less open and cared a little more about my interests and needs with still making it simple and private. I chose to follow these certain accounts because they are actively involved in my search engines as of today. I have sites that will be useful for immediate findings of information that I can immediately put to use in my everyday life.

I was really intrigued with the video. I am a believer of positive, I believe in strength playing, I believe in playing with your strengths because they will eventually condense the weakness. I know that we have to manage our weakness through approval and recognition of our weakness, but how fun would it be if a person can only focus on what makes them successful and productive.
I can say that "work" is a sweet spot right now. I walk into the workplace feeling as if I am stepping into a family home. It has become natural to me to conduct effect work at my workplace. It's a benefit to feel proud when I finish deadlines without any problems or head pounding procedures, or when I motivate a student by just carrying a conversation with them, and to assist colleagues in working towards a College Mission Statement to the people.

I reward the inventors of this program. They have included their efforts to effect the reputation of professional businesses, high-end universities, and people. I believe that technology and microblogging has mostly effected schools; its now a tool to assist with recruiting people to come to your school, marketing programs or sponsors, and communicating in a modern form.
I believe that microblogging is a positive attribute to have and should be adopted by many professional people. The ability to communicate in such a manner permits people to attain technological benefits, allows people to understand situations better by communicating effectively, and allows understanding of new ways to communication.
I do think that it has much more of an impact to Athletics because of its recreational feel and openness.
