I would not recommend STARTING to form a Professional Learning Network when attending a conference for the first time. I did not learn about ISTE, ECET2, or Flipcon from an advertisement online or in a mailer. Having an insatiable hunger to learn, I first dove into the professional education pool through Twitter.

Yong Zhao recently at a conference, he talked about the idea of “”individualized” and “personalized” learning. This is how I understood the differences between the two: “individualized” learning is having students go through different paths to get to the same end point.

For those reasons Twitter will never connect all educators.
