Literacy 3.0?

After finishing the last chapter in this book I really do now have a new outlook on technology as a whole. I have always enjoyed the more traditional views of homework and reading but I have come to learn about all the learning tools that the internet and technology has to offer. My favorite part of the chapter was the PLNS. I think that as a future teacher this is a great tool to know how to use. However, like I said in my summary I do not think that it should be the only form of communication used between teachers. I think that if teachers cannot meet face to face to talk about projects/curriculum then this can be a great way of communication. Although, tones of voice can be hard to understand over the internet and miscommunication is something that happens very often to all of us. Overall, I think that sharing experiences over the internet with many people even around the world can be a life changing experience. It is awesome that you can post something on a blog from the USA and someone form Ireland could comment on it. We use so much social media such as facebook, twitter, google, etc, on an everyday basis. Now we just need to bring more learning and sharing into it! If more people had experiences with blogs, I think that it would be just as popular as facebook is today!
