MMOGs: Vibrant examples of Communities of Practice - 2 views

  •  
    This article explains how Online Multiplayer Games are the new model for communities of practice and how we as teachers should incorporate technology into our classrooms to utilize this networking capability.
  •  
    MMOGs are a very interesting phenomenon to me. I took Dr. Haskell's GameBased learning course last semester. What a great way to engage students within COP and PLN.

  •  
    "...it is becoming increasingly important to develop the ability to know where to find information, rather than know the information itself." Connectivism within the realm of PLN

    I like how this looks at how connectivism and PLNs are related, because they are! Very interesting read.
  •  
    I think it helps to pull all of this information together when you can identify ways in which these foundations can be related to one another. I also appreciate the short and concise nature of the post - the author gets right to the point!
  •  
    This was an interesting read. I appreciated the author's written style. I found her overview of connectivism to be very helpful. In it, she outlines Siemens' eight principles of connectivism. I found the following most interesting: The "capacity to know more is more critical than what is currently known." The focus on lifelong learning as a process is probably my favorite part about this theory. It truly democratizes knowledge and values those who make an effort to continue to grow. Thanks for sharing!

10 Resources Week 2 EDTECH543 - 6 views

  •  
    This is a list I created summarizing the articles I found for the week 2 module in Edtech 543.
  •  
    I especially liked the principal's reflection. There were sooo many examples of places to start. I think most people would be familiar with or able to set up at least a couple of these.

What Does Connectivism Mean for Education? - OnlineUniversities.com - 0 views

  •  
    One of Siemens's points about connectivism is that "Learning and knowledge rests in diversity of opinions." I find this interesting because I teach ancient history, where "facts" can be debated and there can be multiple viewpoints on a topic. Maybe this shows my math ignorance, but I'm not sure a math teacher would welcome this same attitude into a math problem. This site first lays out Siemens's main points of connectivism and then suggests ways to bring connectivism into the classroom.

George Siemens - Connectivism: Socializing Open Learning - YouTube - 1 views

  •  
    George Siemens discusses connectivism and the importance that it will play in the future of education. He says that connections are more important than networks. He calls for a restructuring of the education system away from organized courses into open courses where learners explore and adapt connections to suit their own purposes.
  •  
    I've seen this video previously and thought that Siemens has a great way of articulating what he's thinking and explaining connectivism. He has also done a Ted Talk that is engaging as well.

    Preface: I am not counting this as a resource for my assignment, but I do think this page is awesome in that it offers so many established PLNs to join by category. If you are looking to grow or expand your PLN, this would be a great place to look.
