PLE Conference 2013 in Berlin and Melbourne
Berlin (GER) / Melbourne (AU), February 2013 - The fourth International PLE Conference will be held in Berlin, Germany together with a parallel event in Melbourne, Australia (#PLECONF), 10 - 12 July 2013. The PLE Conference intends to create a space for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas, experiences, and research around the development and implementation of Personal Learning Environments (PLEs), including the design of environments and the sociological and educational issues that they raise.
Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) are an approach to technology- enhanced learning based on the principles of learner autonomy and empowerment. PLEs include methods, tools, communities, and services constituting individual learning infrastructures or ecosystems that learners use to direct their own learning and pursue their educational goals.
This represents a shift away from the traditional model of learning based on knowledge transfer towards a model of learning based on knowledge construction in which learners draw connections from a growing pool of online and offline resources to plan, organise, engage in, reflect on, and evaluate their learning and development. By focusing on the enhancing learning of individual, yet interconnected learners, the PLE approach encompasses a diversity of learners, tools, perspectives, and knowledge.
