My networks are such an important part of my life! Social networking via email and Facebook has
allowed me to reconnect with people that I haven’t seen or talked to in
years. In addition to being able to
reconnect with people, I have gained so much knowledge from connecting with others.
On multiple occasions I have posted questions, via Facebook
or on my college course discussion board, which I needed answered and was able
to get feedback from my networking community.
Likewise, I have also been able to read their posts and learned new
ideas/ways of doing things!
Danita,
ReplyDeleteYour concise mind map explains your described connectivism. Facebook is great to use. Please try Google Plus (G+) to connect with tons of scholars.
Danita,
ReplyDeleteI love the way you personalized your mind map with your photo. I originally began social networking as a way to reconnect with others. I had no idea that it would become such a beneficial resource in my career.

I like how you grouped your information sources under networks, and your personalization of your picture! I stuck with digital sources of information whereas you added non-digital sources. Thank you fo a new view on the mind map.
ReplyDeleteHello Danita,
ReplyDeleteI like your addition of parents as part of your networks. Reflecting, I do see how I have learned from discussion with parents about their children. Good post!
Danita,
ReplyDeleteI like you Mindmap. It is definitely personalized with your photo, smile. Great pic and great job. Do you find yourself using digital tools more than the telephone? I think it's faster and easier for me to send an email, texts, and use Facebook to stay connected to my family and friends. It's amazing to see how technology and the usage has advanced over time.

Shannon,
DeleteI use digital tools way more than I use the telephone. I feel that I am "in touch" with my friends and family more than I have ever been. Love it!

ReplyDeleteI like your mindmap as well, I agree that networks make it easier to keep in touch with others. I love seeing friend and family on social networks. I also have enjoyed using Skype, wikis, and blogs to communicate with otherr learners. Networking adds interesting dimensions to all aspects of life.
