Stephen Downes presentation refuting the Kirschner, Sweller, & Clark article criticizing constructivism. Includes an introduction to connectivism.  One of the fundamental flaws in the KS&C article is that it assumes that all inquiry and problem-based learning methods are "minimally guided," but these methods always include scaffolding. KS&C call scaffolding "direct instruction" and don't include that as part of constructivism.
