    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....

An Introduction to Connective Knowledge ~ Stephen's Web - 3 views

shared by Damien Clark on 02 Feb 11 - Cached
  • Our inferences, therefore, are based on salience, where salience may be thought of as the importance, relevance or vivacity of some property or perception. We 'pick out' those perceptions that will be of use to us, and disregard the rest.

      I think this underlines the importance of context with regard to learning.
  • This is not often even a conscious process; it is based in part on innate reactions (such as jumping when we hear a loud sound) and largely on prior expectations. Our past knowledge has led us to recognize that something that looks and sounds like a tiger is something we should pay attention to, and so our inference engine kicks into high gear.

      This reminds of the ideas of Dave Snowden who identifies human intelligence as pattern matching, not information processing (http://www.headshift.com/our-blog/2005/05/25/peripheral-vision-and-ambient/)

    is this scholar a typical UK or USA concept? translation of the word gives "geleerde" somebody who learned a lot. On "the continent" you are a professor, or an expert, but "geleerde' is not a 'continental' vocation.
