• A personal learning network is an informal
learning network that consists of the people that
learner interacting with and derives knowledge from
a personal learning environment.
• In a PLN, a person makes a connection with another
person with the specific intent that some type of
learning will occur because of that connection.

3. PLN
• An important part of this concept is the theory
of connectives' developed by George
Siemens and Stephen Downes.
• Learners create connections and develop a network
that contributes to their professional development
and knowledge. The learner does not have to know
these people personally or ever meet them in person.

Personal Learning Environments
Are systems that help learners take control of and manage
their own learning.

• manage their learning; managing both content and

5. Personal Learning Environments
A PLE may be composed of one or more subsystems: As
such it may be a desktop application, or composed of one
or more web-based services."[
Important concepts in PLEs include the integration of both
formal and informal learning episodes into a single
experience, the use of social networks that can cross
institutional boundaries, and the use of networking
protocols (Peer-to-Peer, web services, syndication) to
connect a range of resources and systems within a
personally-managed space.
