What is a PLE?

Often called a Personal Learning Environment it is a place or places on the Internet where learning and interaction with others takes place using available online tools. It is a collection of resources and tools specifically chosen by the individual to be used during the average working day and for recording or documenting the journey of learning professionally and also personally if desired.

 

A PLE is where you can

  • Store pertinent information
  • Show professional development
  • Share personal experiences
  • Share resources: socialbookmarking, online images and multimedia files
  • Blog and interact
  • Collaborate with educators around the world

 

What tools help make a PLE?

The PLE model advocated here uses a Wiki as a central and organising force.

 

Why use a Wiki?

  • A wiki allows for easy and immediate web-page authoring (yes, I love Dreamweaver but............)
  • A wiki allows for inclusion of multimedia and RSS feeds
  • A wiki allows for collaboration with others through discussion and page creation if required

 

What are Web 2.0 Tools?

Tools are important. Ed Tech hardware tools are essential in the classroom.

Building online environments also requires easy-to-use and user-friendly tools.
