Using Personal Learning Environments and Web 2.0 to Motivate Online Learners

Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

Could granting online learners more control over their learning environment motivate them to learn?  This presentation will explore the idea of Personal Learning Environments and the idea of moving online learning from closed, proprietary systems to environments more congruous with actual online environments. There will also be an examination of motivation theories that support this notion and examples will be presented of actual, implemented Personal Learning Environments.
