How will you share your work with a community of scholars and professionals in your field?

Your thesis is an opportunity to develop a professional or scholarly voice that will serve you in your career or graduate studies. As you develop your thesis, consider building a personal learning network to connect with others in your field.

Read this introduction and guidelines for building a personal learning network from Plymouth State University.

Personal Learning Network

Create a plan for your own Personal Learning Network that answers these questions:

  1. What did your research tell you about how people share ideas in your fields?
  2. What tools will best allow you to learn about new ideas in your fields?
  3. What tools will best allow you to connect with scholars and professionals in your fields?
  4. What tools will best allow you to share you own knowledge, experiences, and ideas with other people in your fields?
  5. How public do you want to be? Why?
  6. How will you engage at least once a week with your Personal Learning Network?
  7. How will you know if your PLN is serving you well or not?

Use your Thiel College and DHI networks as you launch your own PLNs.
