    Hi! Thank you for talking about your experience with bookmarking. I must admit, I am a bookmarker. The problem is, I never use them. I rely on Chrome history to just open up the page I am looking for when I begin typing it in to the web browser. What is interesting that I get from both curation and collection is a sense of reliance. We are relying on technology to be who we are: relying on our phones, laptops, etc. Not necessarily a bad relationship, nor one that I see changing, but an interesting one to reflect on!

Respite Recap

Image
Last week’s respite was a much needed break. I even took a break from personal use of social media. In short, it was refreshing. As I have shared many times before, I am not one who spends a lot of time on social media; so keeping up with all of the new social platforms in this class has been a bit of a task for me. Thanks to the respite week, I am feeling excited about (and like I have the energy for) wrapping things up over the next few weeks.  In the last week, I was much more focused, relaxed, and much more productive in all areas of life.

I'm kind of happy to get back to using my personal socials; but also have a fresh sense and reminder of the time that I waste mindlessly scrolling. I may not engage in chunks of time - but a few minutes here and a few minutes there, add up to quite a bit of time. What did the respite do for you?

Elon Musk & Twitter... In the News Again

Elon Musk has consistently been in the news since he announced his intention to purchase Twitter. Here he is, gracing the news headlines with his presence once again:  Elon Musk Issues Temporary Limit on Number of Twitter Posts Users can View I received a notification on my phone for a news story about Elon Musk issuing limits on the number of Twitter posts that users can view. According to the article, the limit differs based on the users account. Verified users are allowed to view the most posts, then unverified users, and then new unverified users get to view the least amount of posts in a day. As someone who is new to the Twitter community, and also doesn't spend much time on social media, the limits blew my mind! I could not believe that people actually read 300 tweets in a day, for that to even be a limit. Elon Musk has since increased those limits. For the real Twitter users, what do these limits even mean? Will having these limits in place actually affect the majority of Tw...

PLN at Work

About a month ago, I made a blog post related to an article we’d read about enriching professional learning n etworks. At that time, I was developing plans for using a social media platform to provide informal learning opportunities and professional development to the staff across our network. Well... it’s time! The first post will be live in the morning (7/3/23), and something new will be posted in the discussion forum every month. Based on the responses I’ve gotten from staff; they are just as excited as I am about this. I’m looking forward to asking staff in a few months if   they find this platform to be beneficial in he lping build their skillsets and knowledge base. The social media platform that we’re using is very similar to Facebook, with a space for discussions and forums similar to Reddit.
