Why Twitter?
O It is a
  personalised
  newsfeed
O It comes to you!
O It’s bite-sized
O It is a quick way to
  get a sense of
  what current
  issues and ideas
  are out there.
Two ways of learning:
   following and hash tags
O Following people or companies that share
  your interests is an effective way to learn
  about what you are interested in.
O Consider following NZ and international
  educators and NZ and International
  Education Sector groups
O Alternatively you can search for hash tags
  – it is common practice for people to tag
  their tweets with related keywords eg.
  #edtech or #BYOD

Virtual Learning Network




 VLN Community: A network of school clusters
  and educational institutions collaborating to
   provide online access to a broad range of
 curriculum learning opportunities for students.
Enabling e-learning




Enabling e-Learning: The Ministry of Education’s
online ‘hub’ for ICT-related education resources
       and programmes in New Zealand.
Other VLN groups
There are over 470 groups on the VLN – any educator can join and
create a group. Some groups are closed and private, but many are
public.

Some of the most popular groups are listed below:
O iPad/iPod User Group
O e-Learning: Teaching Explore how and why we use ICTs as part of
  effective teaching and learning.
O e-Learning: Leadership Exploring leadership for change, vision,
  policy and strategy that integrates ICTs into learning.
O ePortfolios
O Managed Learning Environments (MLE's) Online learning
  environments
O Software for Learning
O ICT PD Online In addition to ICT PD Online in Centre 4, this
  network hub will provide a space for clusters on the ICT PD
  programme to connect together.
RSS Feeds and
subscribing to blogs by email
O There are two ways you can subscribe to
  a blog for free so you automatically
  receive new posts. This way you don’t
  have to keep on coming back here to
  check for new content.
O One way is by receiving each new post by
  email or the other is by signing up for an
  RSS Feed…
What is an RSS Feed?
RSS Rich Site Summary
RSS feeds can be read using software called an
"RSS reader", "feed reader", or "aggregator
The RSS reader checks the user's subscribed
feeds regularly for new work, downloads any
updates that it finds, and provides a user
interface to monitor and read the feeds. RSS
allows users to avoid manually inspecting all of
the websites they are interested in, and instead
subscribe to websites such that all new content
is pushed onto their browsers when it becomes
available.
RSS feed vs. subscribing by
          email?
O Blog subscription sends an email to the
  reader, while RSS updated that persons
  feed reader, like Google Reader. Blog
  subscription would be useful if you (the
  reader) did not use an RSS reader, but
  still wanted to keep up with the blog.


                    vs.
Blogs to follow:
O Free Technology for Teachers
O TED: Ideas worth spreading
O Dangerously Irrelevant
O 21st Century Fluency Project
O The Committed Sardine
O Derek's Blog
