The Personal Learning Network (PLN) is a self-paced online program for school library staff, educators, learning support personnel and curriculum leaders.
It offers online mentoring and support, relevant and practical information, great exemplars of web 2.0 in action, and hands-on experience. The program features regular web conferences, and a wealth of trusted resources for you to explore at your own pace.
Through the PLN you can:
- engage in personalised professional development with educators across Victoria and beyond
- build your own personal learning network through a self-paced online learning system
- connect with hundreds of colleagues who will share resources and support your learning
- use the web in innovative ways to enrich your teaching and learning experience.
The program is designed for those new to the world of web-based learning, as well as people keen to enhance their existing online skills and experience.
