Context.

What is new in constructivism, and please provide commentary if you disagree, is that it combined existing ideas into a framework that resonated with the needs and trends of the current era.

Much of what is unique is the particular combination and integration of ideas that reflect the broader societal and information-based trends.

t the same structure of learning that creates neural connections can be found in how we link ideas and in how we connect to people and information sources

Highlighted by robdmillusa

Connectivism is the application of network principles to define both knowledge and the process of learning. Knowledge is defined as a particular pattern of relationships and learning is defined as the creation of new connections and patterns as well as the ability to maneuver around existing networks/patterns.

connectivism recognizes the fluid nature of knowledge and connections based on context

Highlighted by robdmillusa

Connectivism addresses the principles of learning at numerous levels - biological/neural, conceptual, and social/external. This is a key concept that I'll be writing about more during the online course. What I'm saying with connectivism (and I think Stephen would share this) is that the same structure of learning that creates neural connections can be found in how we link ideas and in how we connect to people and information sources. One scepter to rule them all.

Understanding. Coherence. Sensemaking. Meaning

Highlighted by robdmillusa

the rapid flow and abundance of information raises these elements to critical importance

Highlighted by robdmillusa

Connectivism finds its roots in the climate of abundance, rapid change, diverse information sources and perspectives, and the critical need to find a way to filter and make sense of the chaos

Highlighted by robdmillusa

Our knowledge resides in the connections we form - where to other people or to information sources such as databases. Additionally, technology plays a key role of 1) cognitive grunt work in creating and displaying patterns, 2) extending and enhancing our cognitive ability, 3) holding information in ready access form (for example, search engines, semantic structures, etc)

inclusion of technology

Highlighted by gminks

Isn't technology actually bound to your place in society (access, understanding, how you are taught to use it, etc?) If so, can't including it as part of a learning theory be very dangerous?

on 2008-09-08 by qadmon

Not necessarily, if you think about technology in a broader sense (language as technology). IT makes connectivism ideas a little more visible, but like it's said above, networks are everywhere...

on 2008-09-10 by gminks

but even language can be class-based. If people don't know the words to use, they can be excluded from the small world or network that may hold the information they need
