This article is on the personal learning networks. It was a blog created by Karl Fisch on the Fischbowl. He talks about how the networks would help teach people about the world and about what the person wanted to know. He said students would use this to create personal blogs. They would then present there blos in class. The class would then comment on that persons blog. He said there are two goals. One is to increase a students critical thinking skils, writing, reading, and presenting skills. Two is to help us students to build our own personal learning networks. He also said that students shouldn’t just be creating their networks but to become a part of other student’s networks.
Some connections I made were text to self. I saw in his blog he said he was having trouble explaing his ideas throhoughly which happens a lot to me. I found that he connected these networks to the world which would help everyone learn there own way. In a connection he talks about google and Pageflakes and Netvibes all offer feeds to make a personal learning network.
