    The line between those creating the educational content and those consuming the content has been blurred through the development of technology and various networks. Students are creating content for each other to learn from, working with teachers, etc. (Think all of the EdTech classes here at Boise). Personalization, Participation, and Productivity are the measures by which we can judge network learning now and in the future. Learning improves as the learner can become active, put their unique spin on learning and ultimately create someth.ig meaningul

EdTech543 elearning theory PLE

shared by Chris Hill on 20 Jun 14 - No Cached
  • Chris Hill on 20 Jun 14
     
    The Activity Theory model breaks down PLE's into subject, object, tools, rules, community and division of labour.Context is not an external container but it is constituted through an activity.The most common context for PLE's takes place through Higher Education (31%) and Lifelong Learning (15%), followed by enterprise,organisations and workplace (9% each).
  • cholthaus on 20 Jun 14
     
    This paper included many diagrams documenting personal learning environments. The PLE is broken down into six distinctive parts. The subject is the person with the object leading the subject to the outcome. Tools connect the subject and object within a community where the subject acquires knowledge. Rules are present to minimize conflict and help to guide the subject toward the object and possibly most importantly, the PLE has a division of labor. This is how the community is organized and includes contributions from all subjects. Without any one of these parts, the PLE would not function which would lead to the loss of knowledge within a community of practice.

    A helpful--if lengthy--article explaining what a PLE is, and how to conceptualize the structure and role of a PLE in terms of Activity Theory. Helpful section distinguishing PLEs, PLNs, and CoPs on p. 24.

    This video funded by the EU explains why it is important for educators to look outside of their local community for their PLN. The video highlights three main reasons that a vast and diverse PLN is important: Availability, knowledge, willingness to share. The video focuses on the PLM for foreign language. The ability to connect with speakers globally has revolutionized how, when, and where we can learn from.

    Due to mobile world there are new types of learners. They might already know social networking but do they really know how to manage and use this correctly? They need to be taught to deal with information overload, provide information back into a network, and learn how to stay current.

    I really like how it describes the cycle of knowledge development. Ideas are connected and then information is cycled back in and the cycle continues while expanding the circle with new information that adds to previous knowledge.
  • Darla Grant on 10 Sep 12
     
    Debi, I find this idea of helping students to manage networks as very provocative. I see daily student misuse or illuse of networking sites. While I agree that they should be free to be social, learning how to manage these networks more efficiently to represent themselves and their interests seems a much better use of time. Thanks.

    Connectivism is a pedagogical approach where the person has control over when, where, and how they learn.

Connectivism as a Learning Theory for the Digital Age - 3 views

    In this article, Duke, Harper, and Johnston extend the explanation of connectivism penned by George Siemens and Stephen Downes. Their argument states that connectivism, even though it is a critical tool that should be used in the learning process in order to bridge the gap that exists between behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism in the 21st century, it is not a learning theory that can stand on its own.
  • Katy Cooper on 22 Jun 14
     
    The section, "Why Connectivism is a new learning theory for a digital age," provided a great explanation of how learning has changed in the last several years, and therefor education as well. The explanation that, "concepts can be viewed much like a mind map... rather than as a linear progression of ideas" really stuck out to me. I tend to be a linear thinker and my school struggles with very traditional knowledge dissemination. Thinking about concepts in this way is giving me a better idea of Connectivism.

    This is my favorite website. It's updated weekly on Sunday. If you're not familiar with it, take a look. It started out as a sociology experiment and turned into a global phenomenon that has prompted several bestselling books. I love this website.

Where Do Good Ideas Comes From? by Steven Johnson - 1 views

    In an animated video, Steven Johnson examines how good ideas develop. He proposes they rarely happen in a moment, but develop over time. It is necessary for those good ideas to come in contact with other good ideas from outside sources. When we have systems that allow for these ideas to come together, we are creating an atmosphere where better ideas can flourish. He believes that an increase in using the internet will lead to an increase in connectivity and more good ideas than ever before.

    I enjoyed this video very much! Somethings are so obvious but the realization doesn't hit until you hear it or read it. In this case, I enjoyed the narration of how a good idea is very seldomly an "Eureka" moment. The internet was a work in progress for 10 years. I had no idea! Something that struck me is that great, life-changing ideas are usually a collaborative effort. I can also appreciate the narrator's stand that it is possible that all of the digital distractions might actually hinder those ideas. But, with technology collaboration on those ideas has gotten a little easier.
