  • POINT 1. The PLE differs from the general usage of the LMS in that it is not course focused, but rather focuses on the learning the student is doing over the length of their learning journey. By extension it tends to allow for the student to control the way their own work is organized.

      Is it not possible to workwith the concept PLE, PLN inside trad. school system?  Is it possible to help the students to create a PLE even if they are focused on courses?

      Maybe a 'portfolio' is a proto-PLE?

      Does proto-PLE mean that a portfolio is a part of PLE or a preliminary stage? 
  • My problem lies in the double trouble that exists around ‘telling’ someone that this is going to be their personal space, and the other is around the idea that TIME is very short in most courses, too short, really, to create a ‘network’
  • How do we know that any learning happened? How can we possibly organize all the work that students are doing so that they can find each other’s work and so that I, as an instructor, can review all their work? These (and many more) are some of the difficult practical issues around the PLE PLN in the classroom. In the course I linked to in the last section, I put the onus on the students to copy/paste a link to each of their blog posts, to important comments they had made structuring other people’s work (one of our students or not) and important connections that they had made between the information/knowledge we were covering and their experience during the course.

  • PLEs are (to me at least) the ecologies within which PLNs operate
  • POINT 3 PLEs need not be supported by educational institutions

      Why do students don't use a ple without assessment pressure?

    From facilitator Dave Cormier -- "The concept of the Personal Learning Environment in all of its wondrous forms has been one that I've struggled with over the last four or five years that I've been familiar with it. I'm very excited to be taking part in the PLENK10 course in order to take the time to focus on these ideas and get a clearer sense of what I mean by the word. I would add, that I think this is one of the central values of an open course… it provides the opportunity to bring clarity to a subject in a field… even if we end up with different clarities"

plenk2010 PLE discussion forum scott wilson

    A discussion forum instigated by Scott Wilson, co-author of one of the Week 1 readings, and arguably (so far as I can tell from what I've read in the context of the PLENK2010 MOOC) the inventor of the term PLE. A good place to go for extra background and other readings related to "Personal Learning Environments: Challenging the dominant design of educational systems" (Wlison, et al, 2007)

    Interesting discussion, started by Emma Stodel of "competencies" in building and managing a PLE. Still not sure that I've seen a good description of just what is a PLE and why you need to be competent.

    An interesting slant on the idea of a PLE: to ensure that it is really personal, Jim Groom asks the participants in his class "Digital Story Telling" at UMW to purchase their own internet domain, get a hosting account at a hosting service and point their DNS registry records at it. Then create a blog (presumably using Wordpress, I didn't follow the link to the instructions, but it would be my recommendation). I'm not sure that I'd be quite so anti-institutional, but building a PLE around your own domain certainly ensures that it's identifiably yours.

    Building a PLE around your own domain and hosting service certainly ensures that that it's identifiably yours. This is an example from "5 Points about PLEs PLNs for PLENK10", one of the week 1 readings.

PLENK10: Evaluation by Recognition - 0 views

assessment evaluation

shared by Ian Woods on 25 Oct 10 - No Cached
  • Evaluation by Recognition, Evaluation diferential by expansion
  • One is naturally good a math and wrote down all the right answers. The other put in some extra work, wrote down mostly right answers, and got some special dispensation from the teacher (extensions, hints, offers of extra credit, etc.) 30 years later, I'll bet the student who was less good at math will be the more successful one.
  • Learning is recognized, not measured
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Thus, experts recognize performance in the discipline-wide community, rather than performance in specially designed tests and evaluations
  • Recognition is global, not particular
  • 'Experts' are defined as being already qualified in the field and making performance observations and testimony based on their qualifications. 
  • 'specially designed tests and evaluations' (that test competency and components) were used by the 'experts' to gain internship inclusion into the 'discipline-wide community'
