    Thanks Ruth - that is really interesting!

    I found this link very interesting - thank you for posting. I thought the section on learning analytics was really good. I have thought for some time now that the only way to cope with data deluge is to have data mining techniques and up to date statistical knowledge. More stuff to learn....

Unwritten Knowledge Vs. Unthinking | Connektd to Explore - 0 views

  • We need to demystify the complexity of learning in some areas and make it accessible to everybody by presenting it in different shapes and colors, in different terms and formats so that people in all level take advantage in developing their learning
  • The lady of wisdom has so much unwritten knowledge and experience that it could fill a library when ‘unveiled’ Same thing will happen for “Unwritten Knowledge when it become Written”.

The Love of Triangle: C.I.T | Connektd to Explore - 0 views

  • Interactions with one’s artifact increase intrinsic motivation and create connection between people and knowledge.
  • I have introduced in the Plearn blog the principle of ELIS Wheel : Explore, Learn, Interact and Socialize in the learning process. We need to create something and share it with others in the cloud and we need to interact to enhance intrinsic and extrinsic motivations in the crowd’s spirit.

Connectivism and the modern learner « E-Learning Provocateur - 3 views

  • I must admit that I struggled with some of the basic concepts when I first read Siemens’ paper, and I found the lack of practical examples frustrating.

      I too find George's work difficult to understand without examples. Ryan's blog post certainly helps me to better understand the concepts involved.

    I thought this was a really good article and explained things well.

#CCK11 Why Connectivism - and social networks are important? | Suifaijohnmak's Weblog - 2 views

  • Connectivism could benefit
  • all other learners who would like to develop higher order learning skills in their life-long learning journeys.
  • As most adult learners could be confused by the complexity of learning whilst immersed in learning networks (internet and webs), especially if they are exposed to such learning environment as “novice”, some would doubt about their perceived “digital migrant” status,

  • So, connectivism may be more suitable for (technology) innovators and early adopters at this stage.
  • ifficult for teachers to motivate students to learn
  • create a learning environment that is conducive to learning
  • interaction
  • ncouraging
  • supporting
  • development of artifacts
  • professionals
  • interviews with experts,
  • if we are just to add those PLE/N into the current system
  • most students would only sense such connectivist learning as an additional “component” to their often “congested” learning curriculum

It's not as separate as it sounds: The power of networks #CCK11 - TEACHING IN HIGHER ED... - 1 views

  • At its heart, connectivism is the thesis that knowledge is distributed across a network of connections, and therefore that learning consists of the ability to construct and traverse these networks
  • social network analysis
  • to discover how A, who is in touch with B and C, is affected by the relation between B and C” (John Barnes)
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • my undergraduate students seem to intuitively get the idea behind the power of networks
  • perhaps not that they fully realize just how interconnected we all are.
  • they don’t seem to have any idea what they might do to find and foster connections beyond those that were established for them

elearnspace › Social and connective lock-in - 1 views

  •  
    "Social lock-in - where we are reluctant to move to new social networks because all of our friends/colleagues are part of our current social network service. When Twitter was experiencing downtime issues a few years ago, some individuals moved to Plurk, Identi.ca, or other services. But, in the end, the social lock-in of Twitter was sufficient to pull many back. We're experiencing this to some degree in our work/research building a social learning network at Athabasca University - The Landing. If learners have a developed online identity and use proprietary services like Facebook and Twitter, what's the motivation to create a separate social network within a learning context? Connective lock-in - where we have lost control of our ability to define and shape connections because the proprietary connection tools ((Like, Facebook Connect, Twitter) are so ubiquitous and services (Delicious, EverNote, DropBox) are so easy to use."
