- about Ray: Ray Sims has nearly thirty years of professional
experience in design, process and quality engineering; information
technology consulting; business (systems) analyst work; project
management; knowledge management (six years as the leader of a KM
function) and learning & development. Ray is a passionate life-long

[编辑] 国际PLE研究项目
目前,国际上有很多针对Web2.0技术的PLE研究项目,下面介绍几个:

2.Workplace PLE project
target:development of employees' technical communicative skills
funded:the ESRC/EPSRC Technology-Enhanced Learning programme
summary:This project explored the potential of a workplace
personalised learning environment (WPLE) for developing the UK
workforce in technical communicative skills (TCS). These short-supply
skills have two key components: the ability to communicate effectively
with diverse audiences, and having an awareness of the models that
underpin the ICT systems used in the workplace, and sufficient
understanding to be able to interpret their outputs. There is a limited
capacity among trainers and managers to recognise the skills
requirement for TCS, and to develop training. There is therefore a need
to assist employees, trainers and managers in understanding what TCS
involves, how it can be learned, and to evolve a framework for
specifying an adaptive WPLE that can assist the upskilling of
employees.
The project involved researchers from diverse disciplinary backgrounds
(educational research, employment research, technology-enhanced
learning, and computer science) and a range of users concerned with
workplace learning, who worked together to reach a consensus on the
design of a WPLE. The design focusses on one potential area of
application, career guidance services, which involve the provision of
advice and guidance about career opportunities and the financial
planning needed to support career goals. The design is intended to have
a flexibility for adaptation to other kinds of service-oriented
workplaces where TCS are important (e. g. financial services), and to
educational settings where the development of TCS is a priority (e.g.
further education in the context of financial literacy).
Activity: Five interdisciplinary seminars. One of these was a
major user consultation event involving user participants from two
service industry sectors (information advice and guidance services
[IAG], and financial services).
A programme of interviews and focus groups with users in IAG services
to gather feedback on the ideas and prototypes for the WPLE developed
by the research.

[编辑] PLE实施常见问题
任何一种学习形式都会有问题出现,基于WEB2.0技术建立学习环境的学习者也会在这一过程中遇到各种各样的问题。下面列出一些常见的问题:
- 对于很少接触网络的人来说,总存在这样一种心理:网络软件是高深莫测的,我学不会.实际上,现在的工具越来越友好,可操作性越来越强。只要我们上机实践就会发现这一点,PLE环境所要求的基本技术我们能很快掌握。
- 害怕提出问题,这是传统学习社会留下的病根.如果你是一个爱思考的人,这个毛病应该该一改.否则我们如何创建一个学习网络呢?
- 全面掌握,陷入操作层面,没时间把握其精神.WEB2有很多工具,但我们没必要全部掌握,我们熟悉其中最重要的一两种即可.最重要的是我们要把握其精神:我们究竟用它来做什么?为了什么?
[编辑] 心得故事与FAQ问答
我的一个困惑是,目前web2.0工具如浩瀚海洋,数不胜数,甚至不断出新。这么多工具摆在面前,总感觉无从下手,个人在学习的时候很容易感到困惑。怎样才能更好地、更有系统的进行学习呢?还有,究竟哪些工具是值得我们去学习的,真正有价值的呢?
另外,现在已经进入了web2.0的时代,但是人们的思想仍然停留在以往被动接受知识的阶段,因此,我感觉要想更好地构建个人学习环境,更
好地学习web2.0知识,首先并不是技术的使用,而是观念的转变,首先我们要深刻理解web2.0的思想,接受它的思想,才能够慢慢地进入web2.0
的时代。
PLE是伴随着web2.0的发展产生的一种学习方式(不知道可不可以称其为一种学习方式)。正如一个讲座中的教授所说,传统的学习中学习者是被push的状态,而在个人学习环境中是学习者在pull,学习者在主动地寻找自己的资源,同时也在创造资源,分享资源。
the PLE allows the learners not noly to consume learning resources,but to produce them as well.学习者不仅在使用资源,同时也在创造资源。
All learning technology will be at least to some degree network
technology,since it is designed to facilitate the interaction between
public knowledge and personal knowledge.
在PLE中,所有的学习技术在某种程度上至少都是网络技术,它能够促进个人知识和公共知识之间的交互。
