Purpose - The personal learning environment driven approach to learning suggests a shift in emphasis from a teacher-driven knowledge-push to a learner-driven knowledge-pull learning model. One concern with knowledge-pull approaches is knowledge overload. The concepts of collective intelligence and the Long Tail provide a potential solution to help learners cope with the problem of knowledge overload. The paper aims to address these issues.Design/methodology/approach - Based on these concepts, the paper proposes a filtering mechanism that taps the collective intelligence to help learners find quality in the Long Tail, thus overcoming the problem of knowledge overload.Findings - The paper presents theoretical, design, and implementation details of PLEM, a Web 2.0 driven service for personal learning management, which acts as a Long Tail aggregator and filter for learning.Originality/value - The primary aim of PLEM is to harness the collective intelligence and leverage social filtering methods to rank and recommend learning entities. |
