"This article defines 'community' for educators and proceed to examine fundamental issues around new theories and practice for constructing learning communities. Our concept of community asks the reader not to consider the shape of institutions or "schools" that exist today, but to ponder some possible shapes for (virtual) learning communities that could exist tomorrow. Second, we discuss some foundational considerations from theoreticians preparing us to build these communities with technological support. Practical issues around building new communities are illustrated with examples of virtual community types - including examples of technologically supported learning strategies that fall far short of our definition of virtual learning communities. Finally, some tactics for building robust learning communities are offered."

Jon Mott recently published an article in EDUCAUSE Quarterly on Envisioning the Post-LMS Era. Jim Groom captures the reactions of individuals who have been exploring the link between learning management systems and personal learning environments. There is a sense - and I'll admit I felt it as well in reading the article - that many long-time contributors to the discussion were not referenced in the article. In theory, the review process should draw attention to important omissions of literature. However, most reviewers would likely not see the spaces (blogs) where much of the conversation happens before it jumps into mainstream as good sources. I've posted below that I wrote while at University of Manitoba addressing the LMS/PLE issue. I'm not sure how long an archive of their copy will exist, so posting it here might give it a bit more of an existence.

"Although many schools ban smartphones, the reality is that many pupils have them hidden away, or are an integral part of their lives once they leave the premises. The 'Selfy' phenomenon is clearly here to stay, but this video (created by London-based design and animation studio weareseventeen) illustrates how we can easily be distracted with our devices, missing out on the world around us - which could be useful for a discussion / assembly activity within schools when talking about online use or safety:"
