Personal Learning Environments

November 14, 2008

Okay, I’ve been asked to give a presentation at a conference on Web 2.0 and social networking tools and I’ve decided that the best way to do that is to talk about Personal Learning Environments.  The more I think about it, the more it makes sense, we learn in both formal and informal ways, we lurk over people’s shoulders and watch what they are doing and we learn from that too.  The web is providing us with all sorts of tools to enhance and foster this ‘informal’ learning.

Recently came across Ray’s Personal Learning Environment which I think really speaks to me.  Take a look!  Also found some good slide show presentations (some with audio) on this topic.  Graham Attwell, in particular, has created some very clear slides and shares these at Slideshare.net. You can see one of his presentations (and search for others) here: Personal Learning Environments.
