My earlier post on Web 2.0 LMS's is some way discussed by Tony Karrer in his blog on July 2006: http://elearningtech.blogspot.com/2006/07/do-you-want-lms-does-learner-want-lms.html.
Would the PLEs be exactly as what I referred to as an LMS that capitalizes on existing, and even lets the user select each tools to use? The environment mentioned by Karrer is a bit different from the one I'm focusing on. My focus here is on online teaching at the higher education level. So, the little tidbits of content, which is the interest in the corporate environment is now substituted by bigger chunks that will be used within courses, which then compose entire programs.
Would PLEs using Web 2.0 technologies be a possibility for institutions? This would allow a better bridge between tools used in the workplace and those used in the academic setting. There is no reason why this gap shouldn't be reduced.
