The new web environments are
game changers. learners now
need new (digital) literacies
12. Personalized learning
• Personalized learning helps students to
understand their own style of learning and to
develop learning and teaching strategies that
fit the ability of an individual
• Helps learners to develop self-management
skills

PLEs are not only
personal web tools and
personal learning
networks. PLEs are
much wider than this,
taking in experiences
and realia, as well as
learning through TV,
music, paper based
materials, radio & more
formal contexts.Learning content is not
as important now as
where (or who) to
connect to, to find it.
PWTs are any web
tools, (usually Web 2.0)
chosen by learners to
support their lifelong
learning.

18. Connection…
• Learners gain knowledge and new ideas from
each other
• Helps learners to develop self esteem
• Encourage diversity understanding
• Creates an environment of active, involved,
exploratory learning
• Addresses learning styles differences among
students
24. Social Media Landscape
• Social media stimulates the interest of
learners to learn.
• Social media encourages learners to
participate in learning
• Social media recognizes the differences in
learning styles, and acknowledges them.
• Social media makes learning fun and
flexible

Connectivism
We live in a techno-social world
Learning occurs inside and
outside of people – we store our
knowledge in computers and in
other people – George Siemens
(Wheeler,2010)
35. Since we cannot experience everything, other
people’s experiences, and hence other people,
become the surrogate for knowledge.

‘I store my knowledge in my friends’ is an
axiom for collecting knowledge through
collecting people. - Karen Stephenson
(Wheeler,2010)
43. but the changing ways in which people
are using technologies to communicate
and to learn and the accompanying social
effect of such use (Attwel, 2010)
44. a refusal to engage in these issues risks
school becoming increasingly irrelevant to
the everyday lives of many young people
(Attwel, 2010)
53. PLEs are not another
substantiation of
educational technology but
a new approach to learning.
(Attwel, 2010)
54. A response to pedagogic approaches which require that
learner’s e-learning systems need to be under the control
of the learners themselves. (Attwel, 2010)
55. and recognize 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. (Attwel, 2010)
56. Learning is now seen
as multi episodic,
with individuals
spending occasional
periods of formal
education and
training throughout
their working life.
(Attwel, 2010)
57. 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 (Attwel,
2010).
58. the idea of a Personal Learning
Environment recognises that
learning is continuing and seeks to
provide tools to support that
learning (Attwel, 2010)
60. It also recognises the role of the individual
in organising their own learning (Attwel,
2010)
61. PLEs can help in the
recognition of informal
learning (Attwel, 2010)
62. PLEs can develop on the
potential of services oriented
architectures for dispersed
and networked forms of
learning and knowledge
development (Attwel, 2010)
63. “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.”
(Attwel, 2010)
64. The promise of Personal
Learning Environments could
be to extend access to
educational technology to
everyone who wishes to
organise their own learning
(Attwel, 2010).
65. The ‘pedagogy’ behind the PLE –
if it could be still called that – is
that it offers a portal to the
world, through which learners
can explore and create, according
to their own interests and
directions, interacting at all times
with their friends and community
(Attwel, 2010)
66. the PLE will challenge the
existing education systems and
institution (Attwel, 2010)
67. Policies to support the development
and implementation of PLEs
