Abstract :
Personal Learning Environment is a concept that is in line with Self-Regulated Learning. Building and using a PLE is a challenging task that requires students to have developed their metacognitive skills. In Self-Regulated Learning and lifelong learning, typical PLE scenarios, there is no guidance or tutoring. There is a need of helping the students to develop these skills, to learn how to manage time and how to evaluate their learning process in order to improve it. We propose the creation of an organizer with support for the development of metacognitive skills to help users meeting their learning goals.
