In my own case, Vygotsky doesn't really inform my approach to, or theorizing about, personal learning at all. But he is hugely influential these days. And I see evidence of this all around, sometimes even in my own meeting rooms! "Vygotsky's theories suggest students should lead their learning and teachers simply assist... This links in well with the concept of Personal Learning Environments or PLEs. The idea that the student themselves creates a virtual space to manage their own learning, whilst allowing room for social networking as a support system."
