APLaNet - Exciting New Professional Development Opportunity for Language Teachers
APLANet is a new European Union project proposal which aims to help language teachers to develop their own Personal Learning Network (PLN) . We are looking for two types of people/organisations at the moment: Educators who are skilled in using social networking tools and who would be interested in helping other teachers create their own Personal Learning Network using tools such as Twitter , Facebook , Ning , etc. Teachers who would like to build their own PLN and would be interested in being mentored, piloting materials, etc. as part of their professional development. Both of these would be recognised on the project documents as 'Associate Partners' (EU project trerminology which sounds more formal than it actually is) and would receive recognition in the form of a certificate of participation as well as a great opportunity to form part of an exciting new community of language professionals. Think you're interested? Or know of anyone who may be interest
