2. INTRODUCTION

General Introduction• eProfessional as a new role• They are involved in online learning and work• Their main tools is the PLWE (Personal Learning

and Work Environment), evolution of the PLE (Personal Learning Environment)

• Components of PLWE:– PLM – Personal Learning Management– PKM – Personal Knowledge Management– PPM – Personal Productivity Management

3. INNOVATION IN EDUCATION

Introduction to Innovation in Education

• Education has not changed in centuries• We are proposing an adaptation of Education

to the new reality• PLE (Personal Learning Environments) arise

from that Innovation. They are the foundation of PLWE (Personal Learning and Work Environments)

• PLWE are the most important tool that eProfessionals use

New role and paradigms of innovation in learning

• New “Role”“Learning as an adaptation strategy for a networked Society

and Economy. This adaptation strategy involves the individual, organization and social aspects.”

• New paradigms of Innovation in Learning (e-learning 2.0):– Social Learning– Informal Learning– Workplace Learning and Performance Improvement– Self Managed Learning

From LMS to PLE and SLN

• A) Learning Management Systems (LMS)• B) Technologies and Tools (2.0) for Self

Managed Learning (PLE)• C) Social Learning Networks for collaborative

learning– 'Sociedad y Tecnología'.

Disadvantages of PLE

• Not everybody is confident enough to manage their own learning and design their own PLE.

• Not everybody wants to be a self managed eLearner• The sophistication an big number of tools that can

be used may scare people• The organizations are scared of losing control of

what people learn inside them• LMS could be useful instead of PLE for novices to

participate in easy to follow formal courses.

Advantages of PLE• Best solution for self managed learning and informal

learning• Learners are able to choose the best tools and best design

for their learning needing• Very useful for people that use Web 2.0 tools (social web).• PLEs are really good for workplace learning and people

that already knows about something and want to improve in that field.

• If you need an LMS, just include that in your set of learning tools in your own PLE.

4. DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PLWE

Introduction to PLWE• PLWE are the most important tool for

eProfesionals to use• PLWE (Personal Learning and Work Environments)

are the generalization of PLE (Personal Learning Environments) to the workplace

• Components of PLWE– PLM – Personal Learning Management– PKM – Personal Knowledge Management– PPM – Personal Productivity Management

The convergence of work and learning in PLWE

The Tripolar Convergence of Knowledge, Learning and Innovation (KLI)

The PLWE

Components of PLWE• Though it is 'personal', at least, it should include...

• Web Browser with relevant ‘extensions’• ‘Feed’ Reader (RSS)• Social bookmarking• Methods and tools that facilitate self managed learning• Other Productivity Tools, related to daily activity.• Evidence of competences and skills (ePortfolio)• A personal daskboard that joins all the resources

• Note that… each eProfessional should consider themselves as a Professional in Learning and Personal Development (eLearner)

• Which components, resources and tools should be part of a PLWE?

5. EPROFESSIONAL

Introduction to the eProfessional

• eProfessional as a new role• They get involved in online learning and work• Their main tool is the PLWE• They evolve from Knowledge Management in

the current Age• They try to build an online reputation• The key aspect is “learning to be”
