In order to learn, we go to many
spots to seek info and build connections with co-learners, like elgg,
moodle,twitter hash tag, flikr group and so on. I used to join google
groups to learn how to use Python( a programing language). These are
all learning spots. We build our PLE by visiting these spots and shape
our learning networks.
The following links can be a kind of Navigation:
Course: http://ple.elg.ca/course/moodle/course/view.php?id=3
Forum: http://ple.elg.ca/course/moodle/mod/forum/index.php?id=3
RSS: http://connect.downes.ca/thedaily.xml
Flickr group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/plenk2010/
and we can give presentation or ask question in Elluminate
.
Soon many other spots will appear, I belive.
Important skills to use learning spots:
* Ask a question and then find related info and figures, try to form a meaningful dialogue and build connections.
* Join the discussion that have your eyes.
* Start from familar spots and then go to unfamilar spots.
