    Great share! I love the video of the student and how connectivism is being used as a learning theory. It also talks about the strategies one needs to be a learner within this theory.
  •  
    Thanks for sharing! I really like how this article is organized and discusses the implications of connectivism. I also found it interesting how the article emphasizes knowing where to look or find things as more important than knowing the actual "facts." Knowing where and how to look is essential in being a life-long learner and professional development.
  •  
    I simply enjoy how easy of a read this source is. Articles are so boring and make it hard for me to concentrate while I'm reading and this sources is still giving valuable information, but offers an easy to read layout and language.
  •  
    This is a blog entry, which can make me skeptical of the quality of the information. With digital use, our brain is rewired. If this isn't reason enough that we should not be teaching like it is 1980, I don't know what is.

Unpacking Personal Learning Environments - 5 views

  •  
    This blog gives a very brief definition of a personal learning environment and then includes a video created by a seventh grade students that describes her personal learning environment.
  •  
    This is a blog post summarizing the annual ISTE conference in, I think, 2011. I really love the video here. It is of a 7th graders experience with her PLN. It shows how simple, fun, and rewarding a PLN can be.
  •  
    Cool resource told from the perspective of a 7th grader learning with PLNs. I also like how the post references PLNs importance by mentioning its place in the Horizon Report.

  •  
    I like this site because it tells users how to create their own professional learning network in very simplistic steps. Discussed in the site is using online technology as effective tools in order to establish and grow your own PLN. Tools cited where Twitter, blogging, iGoogle, Diigo, attending webinars, bring back your knowledge and implementing it within your classroom, and making connections by putting yourself out there to develop rich connections.
  •  
    Summary: This is a great website with many resources for the creation of PLN's. It walks through 10 steps in creating a PLN. I thought the comments were thoughtful, and found the resource to be helpful in my gaining better insight into PLN's.
  •  
    Who can't use a step by step guide for PLNS? This is great. I can use guides for everything! I love quick breakdown and references that are presented in this blog. Thank your for sharing... I may be borrowing this into my diigo library! I think I now officially have a PLN to do list. Thank you for this find.
  •  
    I love the step-by-step ease of this blog. Bookmarked this and definitely going to use it to my benefit!

Connectivism and Blogging - Digital Innovation and Knowledge Networks - 0 views

  • Siemens (2005) argues that knowledge exists outside of the learner in technologies that store and organize information.
  • learner makes connections between concepts, opinions and perspectives accessed through their personal learning network, knowledge emerges and learning occurs
  • A personal learning network comprises connections between nodes which are information sources stored in a variety of formats, including individuals, groups, communities, ideas, systems and resources

  • In connectivism, exploring, discovering and aggregating existing knowledge is more important that inventing new knowledge
  • The learner needs to filter and validate the knowledge by considering the connections through which it was transmitted
    • nstringham
       
      This is a major aspect of online learning that I have noticed many of my students lack: validating the source of the information. They have a tendency to take all information at face value without questioning the source.
  •  
    This blog summarizes why Siemens felt the need for a new learning theory and what connectivism consists of. I like how this post highlights that today there should be more of a focus on finding and putting together existing knowledge in new ways, rather than trying to find or invent new knowledge.
