Resumo: Propomos uma reflexão sobre as redes sociais digitais e as formas de participação e mobilização cidadã. O tema relaciona-se com as tecnologias, as redes sociais e sua relação com as formas de mobilização, alguns problemas relacionados com a liberdade, a privacidade e o controlo nas redes sociais, entre outros assuntos conexos. O nosso principal argumento é que as redes sociais digitais possibilitam novas formas de mobilização e participação cívicas aos cidadãos.
Abstract: We propose a reflection about digital social networks and the forms of citizen participation and citizen mobilization. The subject relates to the technologies, social networks and its relation to the forms of mobilization, some problems related to freedom, privacy and control in social networks, and other related matters. Our main argument is that digital social networks make possible new forms of mobilization and civic participation to citizens.

This paper is based on analysis of personal learning environments that can be developed in elearning.
Having in mind the current state of technological and social development, these environments,
which have particular characteristics, have been named by specific literature with the Anglo-Saxon term
Personal Learning Environments, from which the PLE or PLEs acronyms derive.
The main objective is to understand the role of PLEs in student learning lessons of the Master’s
Degree in Management E-Learning Systems in the Department of Social and Human Sciences of
Universidade Nova de Lisboa, which took place between 2010 and 2013

This research work is based on a study of personal learning environments that can be developed in e-learning. Having in mind the current state of technological and social development, these environments, which have particular characteristics, have been named by specific literature with the Anglo-Saxon term Personal Learning Environments, from which the PLE or PLEs acronyms derive.
The purpose of this study is to understand the role of PLEs in student learning lessons of the Master’s Degree in Management E-Learning Systems in the Department of Social and Human Sciences of Universidade Nova de Lisboa, which took place between 2010 and 2013. Along their learning, these students used several tools and/or services associated with ICT and Web 2.0. This allowed them to create their own learning ecosystem.
The research methodology used took mainly into account the qualitative aspects. The strategy used to collect information was the questionnaire survey one. This information was subjected to descriptive statistical analysis and subsequent triangulation of the results of some variables.
From these results it is possible to conclude that the Master’s Degree students have created their own PLEs, which have made their learning easier. Besides their use has conferred them benefits. The PLEs were also fundamental in order to develop collaborative activities, to create their own ecosystem and a network of knowledge exchange.
