In this video, Dr. Siemens provides a brief overview of the topic of connectivism. Siemens asserts that knowledge is a networked product, meaning that it is the result of networking on three different levels. First, biologically, knowledge is a result of the neural networks that we create. Second, knowledge emerges as a result of conceptual connections in which learners connect new information to what is already known to deepen understanding and comprehension of a given topic. Finally, Siemens suggests that knowledge is a result of learning through external spaces such as a social networks or collaborative learning experiences. At all levels, knowledge building a complex, connected social process.
