Definition
A personal research and teaching environment (PRTE) is an environment for research and teaching that is under the control of a researcher/teacher, e.g. a university lecturer.
The PRTR is the equivalent of the personal learning environment.
PTRRs can also implement Participatory learning environment, i.e. let students participate in knowledge construction.
Tools
Like PLEs, PRTEs can be implemented with a variety of tools, e.g.
- Portalware, e.g. a system like Drupal
- Blogs
- Wikis, e.g. a Mediawiki like this wiki that is sort of becoming the PRTE of Daniel K. Schneider, e.g. read EduTech Wiki - an all-in-one solution to support whole scholarship?
- Webtops like Pageflakes
- Social Networking software, like Ning
