    It is amazing how diverse Khan Academy has become. They are great for math, but I even use them in my social studies classroom. They provide simple, yet detailed quick lessons on a lot of the major topics we cover. Provides a great resource for my students to utilize when they have questions or missed a certain topic!

    Thanks for sharing this!! I work in Higher Ed. So I always thought the Khan Academy was for very young kids. It does appear that is still who it is geared towards, but looking around I can see some beneficial information for all ages. Great resource!!

    Khan Academy is one of the most popular tutorial websites on the internet. This website covers every subject you can think of with step by step tutorial videos along with the option to practice the concepts as well. The students receive feedback from the practice and the tutorials provide detailed instructions for each lesson.

    The article discusses the traditional learning theories and expands on the concept of connectivism. The author explains the way students gather and retain knowledge is constantly changing and the need to connect what they learn each day is necessary.

    A contrasting look at constructivism, behaviorism and cognitivism and how antiquated these principles are in education, with the introduction to technology. This article discusses the impact that technology has on education today.

    This is an intro video for a 2.5 hour session lead by Madeline Brooks on Connectivism as a digital learning theory. She asks questions like "where do your students find experts" and introduces a lot of the major themes of connecting digitally online and learning in general.

    I liked how this video summarizes what connectivism is. It gives an easy explanation of what connectivisim and I like that. As an introduction to a longer video series, it engaged me to want to see the video.When I was doing my research, I never thought to look at the videos that would explain it. #EdTechSN
  • wagnerang on 07 Jun 18
     
    I admire how this introductory video gets the audience to make personal connections to their own experiences with connectivism before addressing the definition. I also like how it gets the audience to think about connectivism from the perspective of students and how learning is not always traditional or academic; it can be about anything or take place anywhere with other interested parties.

    This video is not strictly about connectivism. With that being said the part about connectivism was very informative even though it was rather short. It starts talking about connectivism at about the 4:25 mark.
  • miljenni on 10 Jun 18
     
    I agree that this explanation is a good one. It describes it as Digital Age Learning and a creative process. The teachers are then responsible to nurture the connections that the students are making but still letting the students drive the process. Thanks for sharing!

    I am biased as I am a Will Richardson fan. I went to a day with him last year and it changed so much about what I thought. As a direct result I signed up for twitter and began to try and connect with people. He wrote a book on PLN's and his last TED book 'Why School' is a must read. Here he talks through the whole topic as well as big picture issues. Focused on education and good practice. Love the way he thinks and explains. Worth a follow think he is @willrich45

    Thanks for adding this - I really enjoyed it. I like his comment that professional development is now the responsibility of the educator through PLNs than the institution. Also the comment "we really do want to be found by strangers online now." People don't learn just from their face-to-face worlds any more. I am going to download his TED book.
  • Alissa Blackburn on 04 Sep 14
     
    I like what he says about learning being constant in this internet age; with PLN's we are always learning. When we choose the right people to follow we are getting a wealth of knowledge everyday. We see what others are doing and get advice about what we are doing. "Learning is moving away from the institution and more to the individual." Educators and leaders need to support this change by "modeling" and "facilitating." This is exciting, how do we sell our leaders on this?
  • Sarah Baughman on 04 Sep 14
     
    Thank you for the post, It was very insightful. I like how he compares a PLN to your own bigger brain, or something along those lines. I think this is a great way to think of a PLN. There is so much information out there one person can't possibly conceptualize it all, so we create PLNs a system of more brains to consult whenever we have problems or questions.
  • michellehughes11 on 05 Jun 17
     
    Richardson summarizes the importance and components of PLNs for educators and students. He summarizes that PLNs are networks of like-minded people that act as a network that converse and brainstorm answers to questions. Richardson notes that PLNs act as powerful sources of professional development for teachers. He discusses the current state of PLNs in our students' lives and how they are creating their own connections through various social media platforms. Finally, he relays the responsibility of teachers to inform themselves about PLNs in order to properly and safely guide our students through the use of PLNs.
