Reflection:
Networking and communicating with others can be a very important part of teaching because you rely on others for advice and ideas or even just to vent. Teachers have to active in groups and teams with others teachers near and far to have a supportive network of educators. We want the students to collaborate but fail to collaborate. I also view this as being able to link out and find other resources like videos and tools of educating your students. My artifacts are tools that show a teachers way of participating in a collaborative learning environment.
