The personal learning environment (PLE) is still a bone of contention. Over at the Open University of Catalonia, in Barcelona, Ismael Peña-López has been doing some stirling work on theories surrounding Vygotsky's learning model and PLEs. For me, the PLE is peculiar to the individual who makes it.

These tools, services and technologies become a part of your personal learning environment or PLE. The PLE is an approach rather than a technology. Much has been written on PLEs, including a wealth of peer reviewed journal articles that feature empirical research. Unported License.

With the Southampton PLE Conference #PLE_SOU at full throttle, I thought it would be a good time to reiterate my views on the personal web. Personal Web Tools (PWTs) are thought by some to be synonymous with PLEs (Personal Learning Environments) but the two should not be confused. Sound like a PLE? Almost, but not quite.

Why should we question whether students have the competency to build their own PLEs, when in fact most learners already have their own PLE structure of tools sorted out when they arrive at university.

chrisbath1 I believe once an educator moves from type 1 instruction (learning from technology) to type 2 (learning with technology) to create PLE''s--for herself and her students--it''s the first step towards innovative methodology. If nothing else, points to ponder. I work at a school where this is encouraged and supported.

Check out this little gem from Dan Kennedy on the VLE/PLE debate. There is nothing to stop students going farther and publishing their work in mainstream journals - if their work is good enough it should be shared widely. It''s also very motivating for them. Some of my previous students have published in journals in the past few years.

A number of collaborative and social networking tools regularly play a role within the average student PLE. Self regulation of learning is thought to be a characteristic of individual students (Beishuizen, 2008) but increasingly can be contextualised within social learning environments.

There is a reason that so many acronyms in this arena start with P for "personal:" PLN (Personal Learning Network), (PLC) Personal Learning Communities, and PLE (Personal Learning Environments). It''s because these are individual connections created by the individual, and that is their value: they are personal.

I attended the first ever Personal Learning Environments conference in Barcelona, about 5 years ago, and spent three glorious days in the sun, learning from others about the PLE and how it would revolutionise learning. We were all excited about the potential of PLEs, their subversive nature and their inherent informality.

We created a Positive Learning Environment (PLE) committee consisting of one person from each grade level to focus on one mindset a month and decide how were going to roll that out to the whole school. For example, during spring break this year, the PLE team had all of the teachers write inspirational messages for the students.

We all learn differently. Each of us has preferences. Everyone of us has individual needs and personal requirements. We are unique individuals. Unfortunately, most of us are products of education systems that are based on the industrial model of education which is far removed from personalised learning.
