  abstract  = {The term Personal Learning Environment (PLE) is associated with the desire to put the learner in control of his own learning process, so that he is able to set and accomplish the desired learning goals at the right time with the learning environment chosen by him. Gradually, such a learning environment includes several digital content, services and tools. It is thus summarized as the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). Even though the construction of an individual PLE is a complex task, several approaches to support this process already exist. They mostly occur under the umbrella term PLE or with little accentuations like iPLE, which especially live within the context of institutions. This paper sums up the variety of attempts and technical approaches to establish a PLE and suggests a categorization for them.},

  abstract  = {In universities, diverse tools and software systems exist that each facilitates a different teaching and learning scenario. A deviating approach is taken by Personal Learning Environments (PLE) that aim to provide a common platform. Considering e-portfolios as an integral part of PLEs, especially portfolio-based learning and assessment have to be supported. Therefore, the concept of a PLE is developed further by enabling the products of different software systems to be integrated in portfolio pages and finally submitted for feedback and assessment. It is further elaborated how the PLE approach is used to support the continuous formative assessment within portfolio-based learning scenarios.},
