Introduction to Graasp

Enabling the agile construction of Personal Learning Environments

In the framework of the ROLE European research project on Responsive Open Learning Environments, EPFL has developed the Graasp social media platform. It is now deployed and validated in Swiss universities with the support of SWITCH. In this talk, the motivations and the key concepts associated with Personal Learning Environments will be discussed. The importance of providing fine privacy control and enabling agile aggregation of resources gathered from both the cloud and institutional repositories will be highlighted. The lessons learned in various pilot learning activities will also be presented. In addition, the participants will get a short introduction on how to construct their own PLEs with Graasp.
