Recently, in the wake of the #blimage blogging challenge I've been thinking about the power of photos and images. I have quite a collection of selfies and other photos of me with people who have either inspired me or influenced my thinking in some way. In the centre of the photo is Joyce Seitzinger. Far right is George Couros.

I first met Alec Couros among that amazing gathering of people at the inaugural PLE (Personal Learning Environment) conference in Barcelona, in 2010. I add him to my list of selfies and photos for many reasons (here we are larking about on the Barcelona Metro). Unported License. Posted by Steve Wheeler from Learning with e's.

I attended the first ever Personal Learning Environments conference in Barcelona, about 5 years ago, and spent three glorious days in the sun, learning from others about the PLE and how it would revolutionise learning. We were all excited about the potential of PLEs, their subversive nature and their inherent informality.

I attended an event in Utrecht, in the Netherlands way back in 2007, at around the time that social media was emerging as a serious learning technology. Together for two days, we discussed how digital technologies and networks could support learning.

In this photo I'm with Jay Cross and Graham Attwell, at a conference in Salzburg, Austria. I first met Graham at an event in the UK around 2006, just when I was becoming aware of the potential of social media such as wikis, blogs and social networking platforms as a learning tools. Previous selfie posts can also be viewed on this blog.
