Integrating ICT into the MFL classroom – the blog
Power of the network is the power of the community
Coming to terms with Twitter ‘What started as a few language teachers 'tweeting' about what they were doing has become well over 100 from around the world.  It's quite hard to comprehend having a virtual staffroom of that many people with good ideas and opinions.  It has led to teachers publicising articles on their blogs which ordinarily I wouldn't have seen, I find out about events for professional development that I wouldn't have known about, and it has, without doubt put me into contact with some very influential educationalists who have taken time to give me guidance and advice. Coming to terms with Twitter - Alex Blagona April 2010
Organising and pruning your PLN

"There's a strong, vibrant, supportive community of teachers on Twitter, with many of them sharing resources and ideas," Joe Dale 2011
