Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age (George Siemens) - 0 views

  • Driscoll (2000) defines learning as “a persisting change in human performance or performance potential…[which] must come about as a result of the learner’s experience and interaction with the world” (p.11)

      This quote is from p. 9 in the 2005 edition.

      In 2009, I commented, "There is learning in the connections. There are connections in the learning. Wow, it seems to work both ways" on a sticky note here.
  • Behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism (built on the epistemological traditions) attempt to address how it is that a person learns.
  • How are learning theories impacted when knowledge is no longer acquired in the linear manner?
    •  Lisa Durff
       
      Or how is learning changed when it does not occur in a linear fashion? Is there a continuum of linear -> circular in the learning theories?

  • Behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism
  • not impacted through technology
  • knowledge is comprised of a network,
  • These theories do not address learning that occurs outside of people (i.e. learning that is stored and manipulated by technology). They also fail to describe how learning happens within organizations
  • The ability to synthesize and recognize connections and patterns is a valuable skill.
  • What is the impact of networks and complexity theories on learning?
  • Meaning-making and forming connections between specialized communities are important activities.
  • Connectivism is the integration of principles explored by chaos, network, and complexity and self-organization theories.

Kapp Notes: Out and About: Discussion on Educational Schools of Thought - 0 views

  • What we need to is take the best from each philosophy and use it wisely to create solid educational experiences for our learners.
  • lower level learning (lower cognitive load) requires a behaviorist approach (memorize, recognizing, labeling) as does the expectation of outcomes that must be measured. I then suggest that procedural and rule-based learning requires an emphasis on Cognitivism and finally, problem-solving, collaboration and creativity require a view of Constructivism.

  • children are involved in creating something, making something, building something, they are simultaneously building knowledge in their minds. They are trying out ideas, making theories and testing them, making connections between them and reorganizing them " in short, they are building knowledge structures.

    Is the only difference between Piaget and Papert the kids constructing something?
