6. “PLN is an acronym for Personal Learning Network.
The acronym is relatively new, but the idea is not.
Teachers have always had learning networks—people
we learn from and share with. Teachers are information
junkies. We’re also social. Put the two together and
you have a personal learning network.”

ABOUT THEIR PLN
14. “I have used my PLN to reshape my ever-evolving
curriculum. The resources, easy access to information,
and connections that I have made using Twitter alone
has changed the way I view education on a global
scale. It has enabled me to not only feel supported as
an educator, but has allowed me to support others.”
@TDuver
Tina Duver
Middle School Dean of Students & Middle School Science Teacher
15. “My PLN re-ignited my passion for
teaching and learning.”
@ACFirstGrade
Kasandra Stark
First Grade Teacher
16. “My PLN has meant that without very much effort, I
have help at my fingertips. If I want more information
about anything, I can get it instantaneously, tailored for
my specific needs, and there are actual people
attached to the information that I could/have/will call if
I need help understanding any of it.”
@RyanMBurke
Ryan Burke
Head of Middle School
