Connectivism
■ Learning and knowledge rests in diversity of opinions.
■ Learning is a process of connecting specialized nodes or information sources.
■ Learning may reside in non-human appliances.
■ Capacity to know more is more critical than what is currently known
■ Nurturing and maintaining connections is needed to facilitate continual learning.
■ Ability to see connections between fields, ideas, and concepts is a core skill.
■ Currency (accurate, up-to-date knowledge) is the intent of all connectivist
  learning activities.
■ Decision-making is itself a learning process. Choosing what to learn and the
  meaning of incoming information is seen through the lens of a shifting reality.
  While there is a right answer now, it may be wrong tomorrow due to alterations
  in the information climate affecting the decision.

Connectivist learning in
   the institution
•   sharing: cooperation, not collaboration
•   building from small pieces: students to find and
    build and connect them
•   teacher as curator and goal-setter
•   effective aggregation - a mix of automation (e.g.
    RSS) and curation (teacher or student led)
•   providing defaults and templates:
    resources, technologies, methods
What next?

• holist
• collective control
• adaptable and adaptive control
• the right amount of control
   at the right time

Notas do Editor

  1. \n
  2. a useful fact to remember\n
  3. Is this a learning technology?\n
  4. in other words, we make use of the way things are, putting them together in order to do something\n
  5. should be clear by now - not just how tools are used, but actually technologies themselves\n
  6. as long as it uses repeatable and intentional method, it is using technology\n
  7. ref Terry Anderson. actually a process of coevolution\nit is not a question of whether technology comes first or pedagogy comes first - they have to work together\n but some technologies like to lead the dance\n\n
  8. \npresedentcia municipal - almaraz\nStructure influences behaviour - provides limits of what is possible. \nIf structure takes us where we want to go, all is well. Can also provide creative constraint. \n\nHowever...\n
  9. things go wrong when we don’t make things work together well - when we, for instance, try to fit incompatible patterns of pedagogies together. e.g. marking of participation in forums (you are marking a process, not a product, and making people say things even if they have nothing valuable to say, and people get better as they go) - mapping instructivist and constructivist methods.\n
  10. \n
  11. This is about theories of individual learning, including Piaget’s version of constructivism\n
  12. \n
  13. \n
  14. students can choose pace - and choose to ignore the instructions!\n
  15. \n
  16. \n

  36. community of inquiry model is hard to apply - only constant is social presence\n
  37. \n
  38. inefficient for the individual? sometimes\nvery confusing to navigate - especially popular forms like MOOCs\n
  39. most effective methods so far involve a blend of techniques - still need the stuff from which to learn, still need to form groups to learn with\n
  40. Instructivist: pedagogy etc entirely embedded - very hard\nConsturctivist: process still instructor determined, but greater flexibility and adaptability\nconnectivist: very soft and flexible - process invented as we go along, technologies assembled (which makes them soft)\n\n
  41. hard technologies have their processes embedded - may be laws or rules or part of the software or hardware - \nnotably, LMSs embed implicit pedagogies\n\nhard technologies tell us what to do - they reduce choices. So, they make things easy. and reliable, fast, free from error\n
  42. by which I mean soft technologies are more difficult (and unreliable, slow)\n\nWe have to invent social technologies and to literally be a part of them\n\nSofter technologies increase the adjacent possible by enabling and/or making more likely new choices to be made. They enable creativity\n\nMore choices come at a price - we have to make them. That is one thing that makes them difficult or hard.\n\n
  43. \n
  44. \n
  45. I have mapped Moore’s transactional distance to control: \n1st gen the teacher decides everything, apart from (sometimes) pace and place\n2nd gen, control is negotiated, though teacher tends to determine pace\n3rd gen control is from the learner - can be a bit confusing though\n4th gen, control is emergent and combines the wisdom of all\n

  58. collaborative filters\n social navigation\n recommender systems\n tag clouds\n network mining\n learning analytics\n
  59. The big challenge is to design ecosystems in which collectives that evolve are wise, and act as effective teachers\n\nbut -- where do you turn when you want to learn something new?\n
  60. we all turn to google or wikipedia when we need to learn something.\nThere are ways to build better - e.g. see my own paper, \n
  61. See publisher’s site at http://www.igi-pub.com/books/details.asp?ID=6732\n\nmy book contains info on building software and social technologies (including soft systems) for learning. Alternatively, see\n
