Do we want to use the VLN as an online sharing platform?
We have an established space on the VLN.
We can utilise Google docs and the VLN as our online sharing platforms.
What's our purpose of sharing on the VLN - within this space?
- Access to direct info related to LwDT
- Creating sustainable options for teachers to pursue their own areas of interest
The Virtual Learning Network
- What is the VLN and how can it help you?

Tessa Gray has created an awesome POW TOON about the 'whats' and 'hows' of using the Virtual Learning Network - Check it out here:
- We could use this space as a platform for sharing resources/PLD info to familiarise staff with working in an online community

LwDT Inquiries to support achieving your targets - What are the kura targets?
Possible action/s:
