Very exciting!

The world of personal learning networks is getting very exciting. Yesterday, I went to a classroom site out of Snow Lake, Manitoba. Wow! Students are posting comments, publishing writing, and creating and publishing video. See for yourself: http://www.ideahive.org/ The video of "The Little Drummer Boy" has class and has been totally produced by one of the students. I think the teacher, Mr. Fisher, has done an excellent job of providing opportunities for his students to network. Not only has he provided the opportunity, but he has provided incentive to get them going and keep them active in the community.

I'm just wondering how to get started.
