What is the unique idea in Connectivism? « Connectivism - 0 views

  • Constructivism made sense in that it rode on the cultural trends and philosophical viewpoints of the day. As authority in society shifted, Truth was questioned, post-modernism flourished,
  • But I do think there are unique ideas in connectivism.
  • Tools are extensions of humanity, increasing our ability to externalize our thinking into forms that we can share with others.

  • tools are “carriers of patterns of previous reasoning” (Pea) and reflect some type of ideology.

Mohamed Amine Chatti's ongoing research on Technology Enhanced Learning: LaaN vs. Socia... - 1 views

  • Social Constructivism is a theory of learning based upon the learners' social interaction and collaboration.
  • Knowledge is much more varied and uncertain. As Siemens (2006) stresses: “In today's world, knowledge life is short; it survives only a short period of time before it is outdated”
  • In LaaN, knowledge is a personal network rather than an object that can be constructed.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • LaaN views learning as both intrinsic and extrinsic; it occurs through the continuous building of personal knowledge networks, at both internal/conceptual and external levels.
  • . In LaaN, everyone is a knowledge networker and can thus act as a novice in one context and step into the expert role in another context. And, in LaaN, the bridge between where the learner is and where she is going is through her personal knowledge network, rather than in the hands of a teacher or a more competent peer.
  • a knowledge ecology is open, multidirectional, and without an end point of development.
