WHY WEB 2.0??
QUOTE: "The term //personal learning environment// (PLE) describes the tools, communities, and services that constitute the individual educational platforms that learners use to direct their own learning and pursue educational goals. PLEs represent a shift away from the model in which students consume information through independent channels such as the library, a textbook, or an LMS, moving instead to a model where students draw connections from a growing matrix of resources that they select and organize.

In an environment where information is ubiquitous and needs only to be located, there is a greater premium on skills that support fast and **//accurate access to information//** and on the **//ability to assess that information//**. In this regard, teaching is less a matter of data transmission and more a **//collaborative exercise in collection, orchestration, remixing, and integration of data into knowledge building//**. The goal for the student shifts from a need to collect information to a need to draw connections from it—to **//acquire//** it, **//disseminate//** it, and **//collaborate//** in its use. Furthermore, the use of PLEs may herald a greater emphasis on the role that metacognition plays in learning, **//enabling students to actively consider and reflect//** upon the specific tools and resources that lead to a deeper engagement with content to facilitate their learning." (abstract from __7 Things You Should Know About Personal Learning Environments (ID: ELI7049))__
