The 2M Gem childen are continually drawing on their PLN to seek answers or guidance for questions that arise from their inquiries. They are no longer limited by the teachers expertise and form relationships with key people to help in their inquiries. In this unit the children built relationships with local experts- Tangalooma, EPA...(email, skype, excursion...) They also use their PLN to seek out global responses to clarify jusifications and opinions formed. (Twitter, blog...) <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 8pt;">Ranger Mel
