There has been a lot of talk recently about PLEs (Personal Learning Environments) and everyone it seems, wants to know what they are, what they contain, or if they will replace current institutional VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) or LMS (Learning Management System) provision.

Let me explain: PLE. a set of tools that the learners enjoy full control on and choice of. The tools within a PLE are most likely not used for the purpose of formal education of all learners within an educational institution. Academics and the institutions have the most control on this learning environment.

Informal and self regulated learning are defining characteristics of 21 st Century education. Various commentators suggest that as much as seventy percent of learning occurs outside of formal educational settings (Cofer, 2000; Dobbs, 2000; Cross, 2006). 2008) Does a community of learners foster self-regulated learning?

The trick is to maintain an intrinsic motivation that is just as strong as if one were still learning informally. This is one reason, I think, why personal learning environments (which tend to heavily represent informal learning approaches and are intrinsically motivated) are assuming an ever increasing importance in education.

For me this resonates clearly with the tension between the provision of Content Management Systems (what we commonly call institutional VLEs) and personal learning environments (PLEs). So let's apply this to personal learning environments by translating the 5 levels into an education context.

So the PLE conversation has been, for me, framed in terms of the LMS and tools. How do you make an LMS into a PLE? And it started dawning on me that the PLE was about a revolution in learning -- about teaching people to learn -- about empowering individuals to take control of their own learning environments, their futures.

Much of random informal learning suits the human mind, because it differs so much to linear forms of learning that predominate the formal learning environment of school, college and university. And yet we need the discipline of formal learning so we are able to organise our thoughts and think rationally and critically.

And here are the points I wanted to make: 1) Edupunk is a philosophy deeply rooted in the belief that educators can 'do it themselves', and use tools that are open, 'free' and non-proprietary. It's a movement against the commoditization of learning and against corporate profiteering. 4) Edupunk is more than 'do it yourself'.

Unfortunately, most of us are products of education systems that are based on the industrial model of education which is far removed from personalised learning. Friedrich Nietzsche once said: 'In large states public education will be mediocre in the same way that cooking in large kitchens is usually bad.'

When I first became involved in learning technology research in the early 1980s (it was called 'educational technology' in those days) personal computers were in their infancy, and multi-media was breaking as the next 'big thing' in education. I changed jobs and became less technically oriented, more learning focused.

Traditionally, different societies in different parts of the globe approached education (a.k.a) learning, based on the demands of the land. Gone are the days when learners simply absorbed resources that the teacher gave them one-sidedly.
