Personal Learning Networks

Dear Colleagues and Friends,
I've lately become very taken with the idea of the power of personal learning networks and have been doing a lot of research and thinking in the area. If this topic interests you, I'd like to bring two items quickly to your attention in hopes that you might visit::
A new, rather lengthy post on my blog at http://jlerman.wordpress.com/2008/02/24/personal-learning-networks-...
or
http://tinyurl.com/3douzf and
Formation of a new ning devoted to PLNs at http://plnpln.ning.com
My hope is that these steps will lead to a great deal of productive sharing.
Thank you.
Jim Lerman
