Networks in the neural substrate
Olaf Sporns, , January 24, 2011.

I've stated previously that networks within the connectivism theory exist in three substrates: neural, conceptual, and social/external. This talk by Olaf Sporns gets a bit technical...but you'll find the first section interesting in detailing networks in general. After this description, Sporns moves into a more advanced discussion of network structures within the brain. Within connectivism, neurons, concepts, and people share common network structures. How learning in one substrate impacts other substrates is still not clear. [Comment]

Concept Map at the End of Week 1 - #CCK11
Stephen Downes, 1067 - Discovery Through eLearning, January 25, 2011.

I've been enjoying the development of this concept map. It's not as complex as, say, the map of all the sciences (though it may become so in time), but it shows clearly how the structure of this course has become, in a very short time, a network structure. [Comment]

Visualize your network connections #CCK11
, TEACHING IN HIGHER EDUCATION
LinkedIn just came out with an experimental feature on their site this week: InMaps, which allow you to visualize your network of connections on their site. The connectivism class I'm taking is focused on networks this week, so I found it perfect timing for this feature to be released.

CCK11 Characteristics of an autonomous learner
jennymackness, Jenny Connected
The principles of connectivism are autonomy, diversity, connectedness and openness. Stephen has written and presented about this on a number of occasions. My experience of connectivism in MOOCs or even OOCs is that these principles are not straightforward to apply to course design or learning. My current interest is in autonomy, as I believe that [...] [Link] 2011-01-24T19:22:09 [Comment]

#CCK11 : week 1 readings
paul, moocs
One thing I'm seeing in the first week's readings on connectivism is the idea of changing theories for changing times. Technology impacts the way we live and work, and the way we learn as well. Our lives are more networked in more ways with more groups and individuals - connections abound.That theories should change and evolve seems perfectly sensible to me. The philosopher types seem to like to argue about the value and validity of new theories. It's not a bad idea to put them .... [Link] 2011-01-21T01:52:00 [Comment]
