Emerging web applications and open educational resources are integrated to support a </span><em>Networked Student Model</em><span> that promotes inquiry-based learning and digital literacy, empowers the learner, and offers flexibility as new technologies emerge. The </span><em>Networked Student Model</em><span> and a test case are described in detail along with implications and considerations for additional research. The article is meant to facilitate further discussion about K-12 student construction of personal learning environments and offer the practitioner a foundation on which to facilitate a networked learning experience. It seeks to determine how a teacher can scaffold a networked learning approach while providing a foundation on which students take more control of the learning process.</span>}, number={3}, journal={Australasian Journal of Educational Technology}, author={Drexler, Wendy}, year={2010}, month={May} }
