PLEs in Mobile Contexts: New Ways to Personalize Learning

Today, most people worldwide have mobile electronic devices, which have begun to be used for educational purposes. On the other hand, the adoption of learning management systems in universities has not provided the best results, because students maintain their personal spaces where they learn. The aim of this paper is to conceptualize the mobile Personal Learning Environments (mPLEs) and propose a design structure for implementation. Finally, it is noted that it is now possible to design the mPLE, due to the wide variety of tools, resources, and services of the Web 2.0 optimized for mobile devices.
