I mentioned quite a while ago (in Personal Work and Learning Environments (PWLE) - More Discussion and Personal Work and Learning Environments ) that: Knowledge work is not separate from learning. That's the reason I call these: Personal Work and Learning Environment (PWLE - pronounce p-whale) And there's only one for me.

I've run across a few different posts talking about Personal Work and Learning Environments which I have tentatively started to call PWLE - pronounced p-whale. Tom Haskins in PLEs are power tools and Cammy Bean in Be the Node tell us: So all the talk about tools and maps has struck me as odd. For me, I add -- why bother? Just do it.

The enterprise provides tools to employees that they can use as part of the PWLE. I could understand an argument that it would be preferable for individuals to be able to use the same tools outside the corporation for personal interests - but I don't see his argument that it is no longer a PLE or PWLE.

8 – PWLE A bunch of posts (via eLearning Learning ) all about the PWLE. And I still believe we need to be leading the charge around helping employees in our organizations figure out a rationale PWLE? #9 Can you point me to a few more more recent videos that show this kind of thing? #8 It's a PLE, but emphasis is on concept work.

This sounds a lot like a personal learning environment, personal knowledge management (PKM) and personal work and learning environment (PWLE) and PIM. For example, Personal Learning , PLE , PWLE , PKM are all pretty closely related. Yes there are distinctions, but probably not worth considering.

This vision aligns well with what I see happening in eLearning - Direction of eLearning - Emergence or Big System Tacit workers will use their PWLE to work and learn and it will be up to us to figure out how to aggregate and provide structure to leverage this information into valuable content for others in the organization.

When I look at this from more the PWLE ( Personal WORK and learning environment ) perspective, I find that there are similar functions, but possibly a different mind set. Looking back at my Tool Set series at the start of this year, there were very similar kinds of capabilities being described.

It’s very powerful stuff and an important extension to my PWLE. There’s something really interesting going on here that I’ve not quite figured out. I’m a little surprised that I didn’t get more response to Curator Editor Research Opportunities on eLearning Learning but it may be that other people learn in a very different way.

For folks who are not passionate about their work -- many who reside within the traditional, corporate firewall -- the PWLE is Pointless. Folks who are passionate about what they do will find their personal and professional learning environments co-mingling. Work does not end for the day and then life begins.
