Recognizing the failures of traditional Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) initiatives to achieve performance improvement, we need to rethink how we design new TEL models that can respond to the learning requirements of the 21st century and mirror the characteristics of knowledge and learning which are fundamentally personal, social, distributed, ubiquitous, flexible, dynamic, and complex in nature. In this paper, we discuss the 3P learning model; a vision of learning characterized by the convergence of lifelong, informal, and personalized learning within a social context. The 3P learning model encompasses three core elements: Personalization, Participation, and Knowledge-Pull. We then present the social software supported learning framework as a framework that illustrates the 3P learning model in action, based on Web 2.0 concepts and social software technologies.

(View webinar archive and support resources) - Next Generation Learning Challenges has identified six essential dimensions of next-generation learning: - learning goals focused on deeper, more comprehensive outcomes - measurement of progress through embedded and adaptive assessment - learning designs that are personalized, competency-based, and supportive - blended and open-source implementation and change management - conditions that enable "breakthrough models" to succeed - broad and rapid scaling to match the widespread need

PLNs were discussed quite a bit at the 2012 ascilite conference. Interesting to think of own PLN as a 'space' for learning.
