Google + Reflection

I chose Google + for my PLN.  Although I already had a Google + account, I had only joined because someone had invited me, and I had never done anything with it.  So, I decided to take the challenge, and I started joining communities.  I joined GEG Tri-State, Connected Classroom Workshop, Google Classroom Educators, and G Suite for Education.  I also joined DIY and crafts, just for fun!

I posted a few questions in the Google Classroom Educators community, and I have gotten some answers, which have been very helpful.  I am also learning some things through posts and videos that are coming up in my feed.  For example, I found a great interactive video about Socrative in my G Suite Edu community.

For my search, I searched the term "Viewsonic" to see what would come up.  I found many posts by Jason Webster, a Regional Business Manager at Viewsonic.  I started following him, and I'm hoping some of his posts will help me, or that he'll at least be able to answer any questions I have.

My experience with Google + has been positive.  I've really enjoyed reaching out to other educators and reading ideas that they have about using technology in their classrooms.  It's a little bit addicting, like Pinterest, but for teachers.

  1. Yes, I have also followed some ViewSonic groups. There isn't a lot out there, I am hoping that they are listening to us and will use this great tool!
