Connectivism occurs in nature, as demonstrated by bacteria, insects

A friend posted this on his blog. He is very active in networking and teaching around SouthEast Asian region and he is also our technology officer in the polytechnic that i used to teach.

Ji Joanne, barcamps are youth organized events where they meet, sometimes for a few days, to discuss technology based questions particularly in the context of their social setting. All the organizers and presentors are not paid. In the case of my friend, he goes around SouthEast Asia talking to young and technologically savvy (albeit not necessarily having the newest equipment) and he teaches them on how to connect to youths of other countries so they can learn together, as a network. Cool, huh?!?
