Initial Learning Goals and RecapWhen I first enrolled in EDCI338, my goal was to gain a comprehensive understanding of the Personal Learning Network (PLN) and learn how to make the most of it. The concept of a personal learning network was entirely new to me. In the past, I was more accustomed to passively absorbing…
I have chosen Yanshan Liu’s article, “AI and Social Media,” for peer review. The structure of this article is very clear; by dividing it into four sections, Yanshan explains his understanding of AI issues and how to address them. I will base my review on these four sections. In the first section, Yanshan shares a…

Based on my learning experience, I often use Reddit and Red book to explore new knowledge. On these platforms, I usually just need to use the…
Photo By Team Hallam Before taking EDCI 338, I had no idea that the connections I built and content I absorbed online could be collectively described by a professional term like PLN. My understanding of PLN was superficial—in my life, it boiled down to comments on Instagram Stories, cooking tutorial videos on YouTube, and quirky…
In this era, education is no longer confined to face-to-face instruction. Increasingly, people are choosing to share knowledge and resources online. Personal Learning Networks (PLNs) enable teachers to impart experience and ideas to students via the internet, while students can independently absorb the essence of knowledge through online platforms.

My understanding of Personal Learning Networks (PLNs) was minimal, let alone awareness of online inclusion and diversity. After these weeks of study, I’ve gained new insights into PLNs. I’ve started noticing diversity…
