My Initial/current PLE reflects the digital tools I already use in my daily learning process. It focuses mainly on searching for information, storing documents, and basic collaboration. Tools like Google Scholar, ResearchGate, Chatgpt, Dropbox, Email, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn play a central role in helping me manage coursework, communicate, and access reliable academic content. Although useful, my original PLE was limited and did not fully support deeper learning, creativity, or language development. Below is the visual identity of my current PLE.
In my improved/target PLE, it entails previous and new tools that would make my learning environment much richer and more versatile. New tools such as edX, Busuu, Alison, InVideo, Overleaf, and DeepL now support areas like language learning, academic writing, creative content generation, and advanced research. This expanded structure also organizes my tools more clearly across stages: searching, evaluating, storing, collaborating, and disseminating information. This improved PLE will make my learning more active, efficient, and balanced. It gives more ways to access knowledge, verify information, collaborate with others, and produce high-quality academic content. It also supports my personal and professional growth by helping me communicate better, stay organized, and develop new digital skills that are essential in both academic and real-world contexts. Here’s the visual identity of my target/improved PLE.
