Personal Learning Environment

Personal Learning Environment
LMS and PLE. Moodle’s flexibility, networking capability and possibility to integrate with almost all major Web 2.0 applications is a strong framework for a Personal Learning Environment (PLE). Personal Learning Environment is a concept different than LMS. It is almost 100 percent in control of a student. A student makes decisions on when, how and what will be learned; a student creates new content. Perfect combination. Although different, LMS and PLE make a perfect combination. They provide us with the possibility to combine well-structured, well-guided educational activities in a Moodle course with the benefits of a Personal Learning Environment and Web 2.0.

Super-productive Vet 2.0. PLE and Web 2.0 is a framework that supports “mass contribution model: a state wherein we all play a role in both creating and consuming everything" (Hodgins, 2007). Such mass contribution model my help us achieve “the immense scale that future learning demands.”


 * Since Moodle 2.0 is much more than a Learning  Management System (as it was during Web 1.0), the term Virtual Learning   Environment is used more and more (Jandrić, 2008).
