TLC Tip Of The Week: Grow Your PLN in 2016

February 5, 2016

TLCtwitterThis week, the Teaching and Learning Collaborative offers faculty a #uptechtip on creating a personal learning network, or PLN, using online tools such as Twitter (it’s not just for kids!). Treat yourself to a coffee break and head on over to the TLC blog using this link for a short and fun article with ideas and tips for getting started and a 3 minute video breakdown of how to use Twitter.

For more information on academic technology at UP, please contact Ben Kahn at kahn@up.edu. Anyone can contribute to the TLC. If you have a teaching resource (article, video, podcast) to share with the UP faculty, or a teaching conundrum on which you’d like some help, please contact Karen Eifler at eifler@up.edu.
