Exploring PLN's

I've started my preliminary research on PLN's. I came across this PLN Tutorial on YouTube which I found useful. Since grasping the concept behind creating a PLN, I came to see a common thread between this and the vision I feel is missing in my professional department. To be fair, there may be a vision somewhere, but it's clouded by the state's mandates on our ever-changing curriculum. So many thoughts going through my head...I guess it would be ideal to have a clear departmental vision to strengthen our cohesiveness when we're rocked by constant changes imposed on us by the powers that be. With this new motivation, I'm looking forward to creating my own PLN.

On a different note, I came across this Cool Cat Teacher Blog while researching PLN's. I've only just started following the writing, but I'm liking it...enjoy!
