  I found this article today. The theory of connectivism is emerging, however the theory suggests what is most important is the ability of a learner to make "connections" between clear ideas utilizing social resources and the possibilities of digital networks. Connectivism believes that learners should be able to analyze problems and understand how to problem solve because of their experiences in learning, rather than memorizing facts and information. It is interesting to read about opposing viewpoints regarding how learners should learn. Memorizing information or making "connections" to real world situations and social networking?

  A personal dashboard was a highlight of this resource as it seems like an excellent way to organize our own connections within the world of connectivism and social media. Without an organization, networks and connections can be frivolous and not often strengthened with repeated connections and conversation, but this type of dashboard can help students and other learners take even more control of their own learning and even organize it visually! Thank you for sharing.
