Rhizomatic Learning – Responses for day 1 Welcome to Week 9: Dave Cormier
Announcements
Reflections by Dave on some thoughts that came out of the first day of rhizomatic learning week09 at #change11.
In week09 , one of the course facilitators, Dave Cormier, presents his work on rhizomatic learning. Dave has been developing his ideas in this area for several years. This week is a good opportunity to dive into the mind of Dave and explore how his rhizome-model of learning. In particular, this is a great week to discuss other models of learning and knowledge that share similar network or distributed orientations: actor network theory and connectivism. What do these have in common? Where do they diverge? Are they compatible?
The rhizome model is a bit complex on the surface, largely because it introduces new language and metaphors. However, for those that have grappled with rhizomatic learning, an almost intuitive appeal arises quickly. Rhizomes offer a way of thinking about learning and growth that resonates with the experiences of many networked/connected individuals. Enjoy the week...and don't forget to blog/share/tweet/discuss!!

Week 09 - Dave Cormier Rhizomatic Learning
Article by Cormier November 6, 2011
It's my week at #change11. My topic for week09 ? Rhizomatic Learning.
I wrote an introduction to Week 09 on my blog that I had planned to post here, but as a discussion has already started over there, I'll just direct you to that conversation. It introduces the concept of of rhizomatic learning and links to a number of posts and ideas that I've written on the subject over the last few years.
