To me the concept of PLE is very extended, including any type of stimulus which may come up anytime even unexpectedly. Hence PLN can be a branch of PLE, more practical and connected to people and means. Actually I realize the two concepts are interdependent and overlapping. I will read more. In a post about Rhizomatic Learning I read (don’t mind my quoting) ‘Knowing is a long process of becoming where you actually change the way you perceive the world based on new understandings’ and I found these simple words illuminating. I look forward to hearing different opinions.
