A Principal's Reflections

AUGUST 11, 2013

Image credit: [link] In 2010 I purchased my first iPad and this has been my primary tablet ever since. Over the years I have become quite proficient and knowledgeable about iOS apps that I rely on to increase productivity and to grow professionally through my Personal Learning Network (PLN). This is where you come in.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2010

Don''t get me wrong, the summer months are invaluable to me as I spend my time immersed in the flow of information that my social networks provide, developing action plans, analyzing data, and hiring staff. Many of the initiatives that I am about to pursue either came directly or indirectly from my Personal Learning Network (PLN).

Next week, I will be presenting to a group of educators in my district on the subject of "Must-Have iPad and Smartphone Apps." I did a blog post a short time ago, and that list hasn''t change much, but there have been a few additions and deletions, mostly due to suggestions of those in my Personal Learning Network.

I am continuing to explore ways to use the iPad in my role as an administrator. In an earlier blog post , I indicated that the iPad has provided me as an administrator with three main benefits.

I am passionate about technology and its effects on teaching and learning. I’ve presented at various conferences such as ATE , CUE and ISTE.

Here are my 8 essential tools: 1) Twitter, because as I recently said in a YouTube video , it is immediate, social and personal. It connects me to my personal learning network (PLN) and is simple to use. It even houses two USB connectors for my iPhone and iPad to charge up. 2) My laptops. Unported License.

Not on the field; I think it would have been hard to hook my iPad up to the big monitors. I submitted a proposal that was basically a "life after Google Reader" type of presentation- many of you know how upset I was when Google retired Reader, which was a cornerstone of my personal learning network (PLN).

Here is an example I use a lot where I asked people to give me their thoughts on what a PLN (Personal Learning Network) means to them. Tablets- The iPad is wicked cool. Apps are what make the iPad so great. Then the other kids in the class record their thoughts around the image. Very easy and lots of potential.

One of the most acclaimed iPad apps of the year is also one that can let you take your Personal Learning Network with you anywhere you go. I''m speaking of FlipBoard , which lets you add a variety of "feeds" (for example, Facebook, Twitter, Google Reader, or any blog) and access it as an interactive magazine.

I did a very unscientific Twitter poll (click or see below), and I asked my Education Personal Learning Network (PLN) friends if they sleep with their phones and was surprised by the many responses. Admittedly, since I’ve gotten older I read mostly on my iPad because I love being able to adjust the font size.
