In this blog post, “Google+ The Complete Guide,”Ben Parr explains how Google+ is the next
best social media network. He has designed and included a complete guide to
navigating this fresh new place to hangout and network. He admits that it’s not
the easiest thing to learn, so he has tried to help by providing resources for
new users. It was appropriately named Google+ because it is still Google, but
more.
In the blog post “Educators- Google Plus in for You,” by
Chris Brogan, he discusses how educators should use Google+ in their
classrooms. He lists making class circles for a community of learners to share
cyberspace, and teachers sharing lesson plans to limited users as the points
for educators to join. I love the idea of PLN’s now that I am benefitting from
one, so I can imagine how I could make Google+ work for me.
Q1. If Google+ is
such a great tool to use, then why hasn’t Jeff walked us through the process
when he knows it’s a bit more challenging?
I believe that he has set us up to make our own wise choices
when it comes to creating the remainder of our PLNs, and we should be able to
take our previously learned knowledge about how these Internet tools and
services work, and hopefully apply them here without fail.
Q2. Where can I go
for tutorials to make it all make sense if I’m an auditory learner?
