Good update on how the PLENK course is going. "Despite the dwindling participation, the past three weeks were arguably the most interesting part of the course, exploring the theoretical background for personal learning environments, sharing experiences in evaluating the learning process in a PLE, and trying to define digital literacies for learning with PLEs." This is also the most interesting stuff for me. The declining participation is explained, in part, by the difficulties people have keeping up (also documented in this post) and the natural drop-off as people realize that they don't have time or inclination to keep working on it. The facilitators (including myself) are all accustomed to this phenomenon and no longer take it personally. Here's more from PLENK.
