Abstract :
We describe a framework to build a user-centric training environment for information and communication technologies education. The result is a personal information ecosystem - PIE - that mashups available online services. The PIE is used to teach the technology, to deliver the course material and to train students to the practice in order to make them pro-active users of Web 2.0 communication services. This user-centric information ecosystem training approach has been experimented and applied in a bachelor course.
