Siemens discusses how motivation, emotions, exposure, patterning, logic, and experience are key components to learning through networking. Personal learning networks are formed based upon a common ground with networked learning being a subset of connectivism.
The imagery created by the use of the terms 'node' and 'connection' is very helpful in this article. As I was reading, I instantly thought of my PLE image of a honeycomb. As I continued reading, however, when Siemens talks about how sometime nodes weaken or become irrelevant, I thought about a switchboard of lights. Thanks for sharing, Catherine!
