Personal learning network

Personal learning environments (PLEs) allow individuals to access, aggregate, and manipulate digital artifacts of their ongoing learning experiences. A PLE is a collection of tools, both online and offline, that enable learners to connect, create, and share content with communities of interest and practice. Learners can use PLEs to collaborate with others, share information, connect with peers and experts, and reflect on their learning. PLEs recognize that learning occurs both formally and informally through a variety of tools chosen by the learner.

- 4. PLE ? “We all learn. We all use tools to help us learn. Personal learning environments or PLEs, are the collection of tools (not just online) that enable us to connect, create and share content with our own communities of interest and practice. Mine will be different to yours, because my choices and preferences about what and how I learn are different to yours. And what you choose to use personalises your learning, making it uniquely yours.” 1.PLE
- 5. • The PLE is an approach, not an application Stephen Downes (05-06-2006) • Personal Learning Environments offer both the framework and the technologies to integrate personal learning and working.Graham Attwell & Cristina Costa (11-2008) • A Personal Learning Environment is a facility for an individual to access, aggregate, configure and manipulate digital artefacts of their ongoing learning experiences. Ron Lubensky (18-12- 2006) A PLE is a web interface into the owners’ digital environment. Terry Anderson (26-01-2007) However, a PLE is not a piece of software. It is an environment where people and tools and communities and resources interact in a very loose kind of way. Scott Wilson (04-2008) A collection of tools, brought together under the conceptual notion of openness, interoperability, and learner control (…) PLEs are a concept-entity. George Siemens (15-04-2007) PLE
- 6. • PLEs are not another substantiation of educational technology but a new approach to learning. • A response to pedagogic approaches which require that learner’s e-learning systems need to be under the control of the learners themselves and recognise the needs of life-long learners for a system that provides a standard interface to different institutions’ e-learning systems, and that allows portfolio information to be maintained across institutions. • PLE are based on the idea that learning will take place in different contexts and situations and will not be provided by a single learning provider • The idea of a Personal Learning Environment recognises that learning is continuing and seeks to provide tools to support that learning PERSONAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
- 7. • PLEs can help in the recognition of informal learning • PLEs can develop on the potential of services oriented architectures for dispersed and networked forms of learning and knowledge development. • “the heart of the concept of the PLE is that it is a tool that allows a learner (or anyone) to engage in a distributed environment consisting of a network of people, services and resources. It is not just Web 2.0, but it is certainly Web 2.0 in the sense that it is (in the broadest sense possible) a read-write application.” • PERSONAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
