How to build your Personal Learning Environment
• A personal learning environment (PLE) is made of all the different tools we use in our everyday life for learning (Atwell, 2007).
• PLE is a concept that refers to the set of tools, devices, connections and networks that we use to learn (Romero-Frias & Arquero, 2013).
• Social network tools support learning activities by making interaction, collaboration, active participation, information and resource sharing, and critical thinking possible (Ajjan & Hartshorne, 2008; Mason, 2006; Selwyn, 2007).

Pockethttps://getpocket.com
"Pocket, previously known as Read It Later, is an application and service for managing a reading list of articles from the Internet.
The application allows the user to save an article or web page to remote servers for later reading. The article is then sent to the user's Pocket list (synced to all of their devices) for offline reading. Pocket removes clutter from articles and allows the user to adjust text settings for easier reading."

FeedlyWhat is a feed reader?
"All feed readers are created pretty much the same way; they aggregate content, making it possible for you to quickly scan headlines and/or full stories at a glance, from a variety of different providers, all in one place. The ability to absorb, curate and use the fire hose of feed information is a huge marketplace advantage because all of the content you need is in one place, easily scannable and trackable.
You don't have to keep checking back to any particular site to see if it's been updated - all you need to do is subscribe to the RSS feed (short for Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary, RSS feeds streamlines the way we search for content to read online), much like you would subscribe to a newspaper, and then read the updates from the site, delivered via RSS feeds, in what's called a "feed reader."

Trellohttps://trello.com
"Trello uses the kanban paradigm for managing projects, originally popularized by Toyota in the 1980s for supply chain management. Projects are represented by boards, which contain lists (corresponding to task lists). Lists contain cards (corresponding to tasks). Cards are supposed to progress from one list to the next (via drag-and-drop), for instance mirroring the flow of a feature from idea to implementation. Users can be assigned to cards. Users and boards can be grouped into organizations."

Other tools to improve productivityIFTTT
https://ifttt.com"IFTTT is a free web-based service that people use to create chains of simple conditional statements, called applets. An applet is triggered by changes that occur within other web services such as Gmail, Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest. IFTTT is an initialism for If This Then That.
Typical applets might:
• Send an e-mail message if the IFTTT user tweets using a certain hashtag
• Copy a photo on Facebook to a user's archive if someone tags (identifies) the user in that photo."
