This will be a very brief post…with follow-up to come. I’m looking at definitions of Personal Learning Environment (PLE) and wondering what kind of PLE I’m creating as I work through the MET program. The Learning Technology Centre wiki at UManitoba (http://ltc.umanitoba.ca/wiki/Ple) notes eight elements of a PLE:
- Production Tools
- Collaboration and Sharing Tools
- Communication
- Storage Tools
- Aggregating Content
- Aggregating People
- Aggregating Software
and
- Identity Management
In one or two subsequent posts, I will examing whether and how I may have created a PLE and to what extent I have covered all eight elements. I’ll also give a brief overview of some of the PLE software that’s availiable or currently in development.
The following embedded content is the LTC wiki from uManitoba (cited above).

Hi David,
This is a most impressive resource. I am curious as to what your motivation was for compiling all of this. (it could almost be a course in itself) Once again, my classmates turn out to be my best source of information.

I can’t and won’t take credit for this resource. Actually, it was just supposed to be a link to the wiki at University of Manitoba, mentioned early on in the post. I thought I’d taken the attached wiki out, but I guess WP doesn’t want to let it go…
