Knowledge, Learning, Community

Doug Peterson sees the essence of personal learning: "In so many ways, learning with online folks is the antithesis of the traditional professional learning model. Here, you determine the time you want to engage. You determine the topics you wish to explore. You decide when to turn off the noise. You determine which links, videos, or blog posts shared are of interest. You decide where you need to grown and learn. You decide just how deeply you need to dive to fully understand. You decide who your presenter or folks for a group discussion will be. You decide when someone is just a puppet for edu-babble and ignore them. You decide when to turn the computer off." This is the fract of online learning. It's also how people online learn.
