This article describes connectivism as a "learning theory" that uses the internet in multiple ways to help people learn and share with one another.

After explaining this, it explains how teachers can use connectivism within the classroom to guide students in the right direction for their own learning.

This is where I like to start before I dive deeper. This is a down and dirty, concise explanation of the connectivism theory. It is based in the belief that Internet technologies provide opportunities for people to learn and share info among themselves online. It explains how the teachers guide students to information and then students seek answers and create ways to share their knowledge online. Communities and peer networks often form as a result of this process. It mentions massive open online courses (MOOCs) which will help as we dive deeper into models of connectivism.
