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

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.”

• integration of personal and professional interests, related to formal and
informal learning experiences
• working and learning space, both individual and collaborative
• e-portfolio
• rich profiles that facilitate connections
• multi-format communication system
• aggregation and syndication (rss feeds)

Search for information Aggregate information and knowledge Manipulate,
rearrange and repurpose knowledge artifacts Analyse information to develop knowledge Reflect,
question,
challenge, seek clarification, form and defend opinions Share by supporting others in
their learning

FUNTIONS OF PLE
37. The promise of Personal
Learning Environments
could be to extend access
to educational technology
to everyone who wishes to
organise their own learning
HOW DO LEARNERS COLLABORATE, SHARE
INFORMATION, CONNECT AND REFLECT
44. • Learning simply about gaining
knowledge...?
• Sharing information with others
• Sharing information should be about
virtual community that it is focused on
personal interaction
• Give new opportunities for learners and
educators to collaborate
LEARNING AND PERSONAL
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
54. Personal learning
environment
• A Personal Learning Environment is a facility for an individual to access, aggregate, configure and
manipulate digital artefacts of their ongoing learning experiences
• integration of personal and professional interests, related to formal and informal learning experiences
Using PLE
• Personal learning environment will help learners be agents in their learning
• PLE help educators and learners to reflect
• Engage in informal knowledge exchange
INVOLVING
LEARNER
• Encourages collaboration between the teacher and the student
• Learners get the opportunity to be involved in their own learning and create their own knowledge
• Personal learning environment helps with collaboration and getting everyone to be involved in their
learning
