Abstract

Open Network Learning Environment (ONLE) empowers network learners to create, edit, and share their knowledge via social network connection. This chapter examines the predictive relationship between social presence and ONLE interaction and scrutinizes the relationships between social presence and four dimensions of ONLE's interaction. The chapter concludes that online social presence could not serve as a predictor for all four open network learning's interactions. The results suggest both online and ONLE social presences have distinguishing dynamics in social interaction. ONLE focuses on “social” and “networking” linkages to transform online learners into “network learners” to project their preferred “network social presence” rather than online social presence. This chapter proposes the Open network linkage design model, which is a “Linkage Architecture” that links multiple network resources, network learners, and Web 2.0 tools to allow learners, instructors, and other stakeholders to construct and to share their Personal Learning Environments within the human network.
