Personal Learning Network Presentations The Fischbowl
Personal learning networks are a great way to view news articles and get an opinion about that article out in the open. The presentations are an excellent way bring out class discussion. The student talking gets to share his or her opinion in detail. Then the class can add whatever feedback it has. It really works when students choose relevant debatable topics. If their presentation is just a summery about the article it makes the presentation uninteresting, but if they give personal feedback and opinion it makes the presentation a whole lot better. The personal learning networks are best when emotion is shown in the writing and speaking. The best personal learning networks have been about topics that bring out different views based on prospective and belief. Articles like The Pledge of Allegiance and Cruelty of animals, stick in my mind as having good discussion. As a student that does personal learning networks every week I have definitely seen a change in my writing and annotating of articles.
