    "The following is a list of the feeds harvested as part of the PLENK2010 course. This list may also be obtained as an OPML File."

    Captured and shared as a Diigo bookmark because I only found the link in Stephen Downes' blog and can't see it as a top-level link in PLENK2010 site.

    The present and future of Personal Learning Environments (PLE) - 9 comments This post is recast from an assignment I completed about four months ago in a Masters Degree course entitled Innovative Practice and Emerging ICT, in which I investigated what PLEs are meant to be and where they might be going. It was originally part of a class wiki. Contents 1. Introduction 2. Towards a Definition 3. Driving Forces 4. Developments to Date 5. Barriers 6. Future Potential 7. References 8. Web Links Introduction A definition for the term Personal Learning Environment (PLE), remains elusive. Conception about what should constitute a PLE depends on the perspective of the commentator. For example, the priorities for a PLE are different for a tertiary student, a university administrator, an instructor, a working professional, or an adult who persues an eclectic path of lifelong learning. Metaphorically, an individual may engage in a learning process that is either more acquisitional or participatory (Sfard, 1998). There are inconsistencies across these positions about what a PLE should do. But whether constructively and defensively, interest in PLE appears to be growing. At the time of writing this introduction (August 2006), no particular product or service exists that can definitively be categorised as a PLE, although some prototypical work is in progress. An inclusive, authoritative account about PLEs does not yet exist. Only a handful of articles have appeared in the academic and public press about PLEs since the term gained currency in 2004. This article has been compiled after tracking recent conversations in the blogosphere and following social bookmarks.

    If you visit this site you'll see on the home page the famous Web2.0 tools image that has become a cliche in e-Learning presentations. Nonetheless, this comprehensive collection of free to use tools, curated by Paul, is a useful resource for people wishing to build a PLE or inform students what tools they might want to use in their own PLEs. Thanks to PLENK2010 link gopher @pgsimoes for tweeting this. It was new to me, but looking at the likes page not new to my colleagues at Swansea!

    Alan Levine (@cogdog) tells us how to get extra value from an OPML file by making it into a Google Custom Search Engine (link provided by @psychemedia).

    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.

  • 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?
    • Heinz Krettek
      Heinz Krettek on 01 Jan 11
       
      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"

  • while Web 3.0 connects data streams in a supposedly intelligent way.
  • Why would anybody need some researchers and developers to work on a PLE for them? After all, we all know how easy it is for conglomerates to take over the development of tools and applications and transform them into a moneymaking machine, rather than the powerful and promising tools that they could be for the learner.
    • Niklas Karlsson

      This is important! 
  • 1. Intelligent data connections are one exciting option for PLE development and networked learning
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • 2. That brings me to the challenges of an open online networked environment for learning.
  • There is also research available to show how difficult it is for anybody to reach and access a deep level of information by using search engines. Self-directed networked learning stops with a commercial search engine or highly visible node on the network, whose interests might not be served by providing the learner with information far removed from its top search results or choice of displayed resources.
