Participate 1.1.2 Joining a Digital Learning Community Quest

Exploration and Joining of Digital Learning Communities



I explored multiple digital learning communities in an effort to educate myself on options available in addition to those that I am already a participate in. From the options, I was able to decide which sites seem to be the most user friendly, applicable, and engaging for students and for me as a lifelong learner.




The digital learning communities that I explored are:
  • Georgia School Counselors Association (GSCA) (I am already a member, here but looked deeper into what I can utilize from this great resource)
  • Barth Syndrome Foundation Listserv (I am already a member and use this extensively as support and education for the genetic disorder that my son has)
  • Khan Academy (I explored here because I have so many students who use this as a resource for math support)
  • Pinterest (I created a board for digital learning communities and pinned multiple resources and followed several others)
  • I joined a closed Facebook group entitled "High School Counselors' Network - I am excited to learn more about what resources and discussion topics are here that can better support me as I support my students!
