To improve the quality of learning, pedagogues have prescribed different pedagogical
approaches (constructivist, cognitivist…). However, the effective implementation of the
majority of these approaches has not been possible only after the advent of new forms of
learning (E_learning, M-learning...). These forms are closely related to technological
development. Later with the emergence of technology (pervasive computing, Artificial
Intelligent ...) a new form of learning is established. It is called Pervasive Learning "PLearning”.
P-Learning is a social process that connects learners to communities of
devices, people, and situations in a transparent and independent manner. This learning
form goes far beyond the predictions suggested by pedagogue. Learning can then take
part outside the learner via technology, which will be an extension of his brain by
unloading the cognitive practices he performs.
The aim of this paper is to answer the following questions: What alliance is there
between pedagogy and technology? Are we in need of a new pedagogical approach in
the new learning environment "P-Learning"? What are the new pedagogical challenges
to resolve?
