Creating a Personal Learning Environment (PLE) has been a great way to reflect on how I manage my learning and growth. My initial PLE shows the tools I currently use for different aspects of my learning, such as searching for information, organizing tasks, communicating, creating content, and finding inspiration. It includes platforms like Google, YouTube, and Canva, which have been useful for my studies and creative projects. However, during our group discussion, I realized that my PLE could be more focused on my long-term academic and professional goals.

With this in mind, I worked on my target PLE to include tools that align better with where I want to go. For example, I added resources like Eurostat and OpenLCA for data and sustainability analysis, Mendeley for managing research, and Python and Premiere Pro to develop technical and creative skills. My target PLE also includes Coursera and LinkedIn for professional learning, which will help me gain new knowledge and stay updated. This process has helped me see how I can improve the way I learn by combining useful tools and organizing them more effectively. It’s exciting to think about how my PLE will keep evolving as I grow and take on new challenges!
