Viral Professional Development

· Alec Couros

I don’t have the time to adequately respond to Jennifer Jones’ excellent post on what she calls “viral professional development”. Once I do get time, I would like to talk to Jen more about this because it has really hit some parallel thoughts in my own recent thinking.

So, for now … read this post. There are several important points for anyone involved in professional development programs at their institutions or are concerned with their own professional learning.

Thanks Jen. Great post.

Thanks! I understand the time crunch. I’ve had this stewing in my brain for a few weeks and had to keep the laptop within reach all day just to crank that out. You can probably tell my thought process kept getting interrupted! I appreciate the link back.
