dc.description.abstract | This article provides readers with an understanding of the concept of
the personal learning environment (PLE). It suggests that PLEs can be used in
two complementary ways: as a developmental lens for integrating ICT and
creating new pedagogical practices and digital literacies for academic language
learning, and as a context in which learners can practise and develop
core skills such as digital literacies, team and knowledge work, and interactional
skills – skills that are needed for success in today’s knowledge economy.
The article places PLEs within the broader development related to the
cultural changes brought on by the proliferation of Web 2.0 technologies –
participation, teamwork and co-design – and considers PLEs in relation to
digital literacies and 21st-century skills. It then reports on a research-anddevelopment
project that makes use of design-based research and creates
tools and models for learner-centred technology integration on the basis of a
rich set of data and experiments. The article presents theoretical as well as
practical insights into implementing PLEs in higher education (HE) language
centre teaching and outlines principles for implementation in formal education.
It concludes by expressing the need to purposefully balance the structure
provided by traditional approaches to learning against ways of organising it
with the nearly unlimited resources and participatory aspects afforded by the
new media. | |
