The document discusses how the presenter models learning for students by creating a blog to share his learning process, interests, and skills. He labels blog posts with skills and mindsets to categorize them. The presenter uses the blog to model science skills, share content through Pinterest and RSS feeds, and document personal learning plans. The goal is for students to also create their own digital learning spaces to model learning.
