My Personal Learning Network: Introduction

I love, love, love technology but I've decided to divert my attention to a different 'ology,- psychology. Prior to pursuing a career in technology, I was on a path to obtain a degree in psychology. I have an interest in this area because us human beings are very unique when it comes to our thought processes and behaviors. I have decided to design my Personal Learning Network on aspects of  psychology.

Below are some basic steps that I plan to follow, ( not in any specific order) when creating my PLN. Throughout my learning processes, I will discover new information which I reflect on this blog.

1. Subscribe to other blog post-  Subscribing to other blog posts will help me to stay in sync with my learning curve and it is also a way to enhance and improve my PLN. Networking with others who share the same interests is very beneficial.

2. Learn to Microblog-  Microblogging is very crucial in my situation considering that my time is spread out very thin; learning to cover topics in about 140 words would be in my best interest because it will help me to sum things up, without leaving out essential information.

3. Join social networking sites- Joining professional and non professional social networking sites will give me the benefit of gathering information from different perspectives to aid in contrast and comparing. It's always good to hear both sides of the story and all information can not be found in a book.

4. Research- As in most cases, research is needed to validate and/or support opinions.

 This steps will be the foundation for my PLN with the addition of newly discovered ones.
