I feel Elluminated! [PLNs, Unconference]

Last night was the first Elluminate session I’ve attended. I’ve seen Sue Waters tweet and post about them but never taken the time to attend before. The “main points” I took away from the session weren’t so much about PLNs — I’ll have to re-listen sometime to really digest it — but about how great this community of lifelong learners is. I wasn’t at all sure what to expect from an Elluminate session but it had a great pace, many different viewpoints, and multiple ways to collaborate and feel a part of the unconference.
Can’t wait for the next one!

That's the comment I left on last night's Elluminate unconference wrap up.   I've been doing this blogging/tweeting PLN thing for a little while now, but I feel like last night was the first time I really had my brain scrambled in a good way.  I participated in a two-hour professional development session with professionals who live 15 minutes from me to those who are across the world.  If you're up for it, take some time to listen to the session
