A degree of risk exists in trying to solidify the nature of PLEs too soon

PLEs are about trying to name an emergent process

How do we reconcile the structured nature of formal education with the informal attributes of networked learning
-
Pedagogical viewpoints - different viewpoints of what it means to teach, to learn, and views of the role of education all impact potential approaches
-
Blogs, wikis, and podcasts are experiencing higher levels of adoption, but as individual tools, they hardly qualify as a PLE

LMS' are generally not used at full capacity

Second Life (inclusion of SecondLife as a component of PLEs is a function of how PLEs are defined. If openness and the ability for data to move between different tools is important, 2L fails...but if PLEs are defined more by the loose connections of numerous tools under the control of an individual, 2L could be considered a component).For more information, see LTCs WebConferencing resource

Identity Management
OpenID -
Suites of tools
Sites like Myspace, Facebook and EduSpaces.net can serve as PLEs - the ability to dialogue, manage ones own identity, and share resources, combined with huge penetration in many campuses, speak of their potential as a learning tool. EduSpaces.net is based on an open source tool for social networking, that can be used also as PLE and Eportfolio tool: Elgg.

How do we achieve clear outcomes through decentralized means? How do we reconcile the structured nature of formal education with the informal attributes of networked learning? While PLEs and eportfolios offer an opportunity to blend informal and formal learning, the gulf between the two is great.

It's the connections that make a PLE. Numerous other factors play a role: content creation tools, content storage, tools for communication, protocols/APIs, and identity management.
