Professional Learning Network

Why Networking/Connecting Through Social Media Helps 

  • It has allowed me to access a variety of experienced teachers in which I am able to get ideas and inspiration for my future classroom.

  • It has allowed me to share with other pre-service teachers the work I am doing in and out of the classroom to further inspire them, and also the other way around.  

  • It has allowed more experienced teachers in my family see the work that I am doing, thus allowing them to assist and suggest more pedagogical tools and resources. 

  • It has allowed for a supportive community of educators to emphasize the importance of caring for students and putting in the time outside of the classroom.

  • It has allowed me to see both the challenges and successes that educators deal with on the daily.  

  • It has allowed me to store all that I learn in my educational classes in college in one place, so I can go back and look at the resources used.

  • It has encouraged me and made me excited for my future in becoming an educator one day. 

How I used Instagram and Pinterest

  • I used Pinterest to get ideas about the different domains of FFT, lesson plans, lesson materials, classroom design, and additional teacher resources.

  • I used Instagram to post the educational technology tools that I enjoyed using, book reviews about educational books I learned from, field experiences I had in different classrooms, inspirational quotes and Bible verses, ideas that I found from other teachers, resources that I would like to use in my future classroom, and lessons I taught.

  • I also used Instagram to learn from a variety of pre-service and experienced teachers in various ways.
