A teacher of…?
Posted on: March 13, 2012
I have been on Twitter for five years. It very quickly became part of my personal learning network (PLN), or as Richard Byrne would prefer to call it, personal sharing network (PSN).
Before I learnt from my PLN, I had a ready answer if anyone asked me what I did. I told them WHAT I taught.
After learning from my PLN, I focus on WHO I teach instead. At our inaugural #edsg chat last month, I introduced myself this way:
I teach people and myself. I also pretend to teach tech integration. #edsg—

This was not an attempt to be funny or glib. This was a realization of who I am and what I do. It was also an acknowledgement that I am still learning.
