My Personal Learning Network on Prezi
Above is a Prezi I created to reflect my Personal Learning Network. It contains Web 2.0 sources, organisations I participate in and work (both current and past). It was created using Prezi. I found Prezi both powerful and frustrating at the same time. The end result is a reasonably slick presentation. It is a very interesting tool that could be a nice alternative to Powerpoint.
After collecting the information for my Personal Learning Network I was quite surprised at how many sources I have. I probably don't take advantage of them as much as I should, what with working full time and studying part time. I do collect and share information but I haven't been producing as much as I should.
Also, I probably need to be more involved in 'real life' connections, but again with work and study my time is very limited.
In regards to the Utecht’s 5 stages of PLN adoption, I am probably somewhere in the middle of stage 3 'know it all'. I have more than 30 blogs in my 'library' folder in Google Reader 10 or so library Twitter feeds I watch and a few libraries as contacts in Flickr. It gets to be a bit overwhelming at times. This exercise has helped me to see that I need to find ways to better organise the information coming in so that it is more manageable.
So for 2011 my New Years resolution (and I don't normally make New Years resolutions) will be to
- Explore ways to better organize the information I consume
- Find ways to connect with actual people in my industry in person
- Produce and share more online
