Blogs – Declarative or Responsive?
alan, Connectivism-2011 (per alQpr)
A comment by Scott Johnson on the CCK11FaceBook group refers to blogs as primarily declarative rather than responsive. Is that your experience? and either way are there things we could do to make them more [Link] 2011-02-25T08:35:51 [Comment]

Learning Theories in CCK11
alan, Connectivism-2011 (per alQpr)
I have posted in my main blog a plea for assistance in understanding in what sense “learning theories” are actually scientific theories with predictive capability. My suspicion is that they might be better characterized as ideologies (ie as statements about what aspects of learning we consider important or valuable) but if this is wrong I [...] [Link] 2011-02-24T18:48:49 [Comment]

Groups vs Networks in CCK11
alan, Connectivism-2011 (per alQpr)
This is a repost in order to get picked up by the cck11 gRSShopper system and start a discussion topic there. I am puzzled by Stephen’s apparent preference for the “stability” of flatter mesh-style networks over the kind of rapid propagation of change (“cascade” phenomena) that is facilitated by a power law distribution of connectivity.

Higher Ed sponsored PLEs...an oxymoron?
Stephen Downes, 1110 - Multilitteratus Incognitus, February 24, 2011.

There's a discussion being conducted right now - Cable Green talked about it - under the heading of Open Educational Resources University, where this subject comes up explicitly. There are, it seems to me, two major schools of thought in the field - one in which OERs are 'produced' by publishers and universities, in order to ensure quality, etc., and funded through some sort of sponsorship program or even by charging students fees, and the other in which OERs are created by learners themselves and shared in a wider OER ecology. Not surprisingly, I subscribe to the second [Comment]
