Together for two days, we discussed how digital technologies and networks could support learning. The event was called 'Show that you Share' and focused on tools such as Creative Commons , personal learning environments and mobile phones as a means of creating, sharing and repurposing content, knowledge and artefacts for education.

Technology, in whatever form, should become just another part of the learning environment, as useful as a table around which students gather for discussion, or flipchart and pens used to brainstorm ideas for a plenary presentation. As soon as technology becomes a focus, learning is marginalised. It should not be glamourised.

Sometimes, the technology does get in the way of learning and teaching. Let me give you an example: Many schools, colleges and universities have by now implemented a managed learning environment (MLE) sometimes referred to as a virtual learning environment (VLE) or Learning Management System (LMS).

Everyone has one - a personal learning environment, that is. We all learn. We all learn. We all use tools to help us learn. Personal learning environments or PLEs, are the collection of tools (not just online) that enable us to connect, create and share content with our own communities of interest and practice.

I have written a lot about Personal Learning Environments in the past, especially when they were emerging as a concept, and sounded quite new. PLEs could be created by anyone, using just about any tool or technology, and we expanded the idea to embrace other elements such as real experiences and people (Personal Learning Networks).
