For my PNL challenge I decided to use a worldly used social media site called

Instagram. ​The purpose of this challenge is to see how powerful Twitter and Instagram

can be for learning and developing a positive, professional digital presence. I really liked

the idea of participating in this challenge because we got to practice the use of a

professional account and also got to communicate with other professionals in the same

area of practice. ​The first day I started out with a simple introduction saying who I am

and why I’m doing this challenge. The second day I got to communicate with the PLN

challenge by asking a question with #pln. The third day I got to talk within the PNL

community by having discussion chats. The fourth day I found an article that I found

interesting and related to the topic. After finding this article I posted it on my Instagram

page to have others review so they had an opportunity to share their opinion. And finally

on the last day I gave a shout out 5 different people that had an influence on me over

the course of the week. I really enjoyed participating in this challenge. From this

challenge I believe I gained better communication skills.
