Frames and Context: Toomato or Tomato
zapotepetl, 1160 - Damo's World, February 7, 2011.

---

Hi Damien! I've got lost on your example, but anyways I do agree with you that a frame and a context are not quite the same. At least, lingustically I think a frame relaters for something constructed (to frame something), while context to something given (and as complicated as culture). [Comment]

Dialogues (help!)
zapotepetl, 1072 - redeflexiones, February 7, 2011.

Hi Ak! Thanks for your comment. You said: "While distributed is good, it's also poor if you want to get easy participation. We are all busy professionals so it's not as easy to get to deeper levels of understanding with such a widely distributed method of communication." I think there are 3 different "problems" there: (1) The distributed nature of this MOOC proposal WITHOUT a place (&tool) to dialogue. (2) The bussy we all are (3) The combination of both. Number (1) helps chatting, commenting, small talking easy. That's a great advantage for number (2). But condition (2) doesn't imply unability to go deep. It just needs to adecuated tools for enhacing own time. The distributed nature of 700+ participants (145+ blogs) is great, but very complex. Places (&adecuated tools) for dialogue will make a big difference. I understand that previous cck moocs edither used forumes on moodle or on google groups. Not using moodle is just a way to say "stop thinking in a class", .... [Comment]

Training, exercising, learning, connecting (#cck11)
jaapsoft2, connectiv
Learning to understand a text, exercising to play music, understanding Connectivism, and other types of learning are all alike in making connections. Exercising to play ‘God bless the Child’ is trying to play the notes in the right order, with the right expression. Connecting notes to music. Connecting fingers and head. Connecting sheet music and [...] [Link] 2011-02-08T07:37:59 [Comment]

Learning Theories: Back-of-the-napkin edition
AK, Multilitteratus Incognitus
I spent last week viewing and commenting on CCK11 blog post, but not really writing much about it. I saw a number of posts on digital scholarship, but I still haven't had a chance to listen to the MP3 file. Hopefully today on the commute home! The speaker has a really soft voice and it's hard to really hear him on the train (perhaps some audio post-processing is in order?)This week in CCK11 we've got learning theories. luckily most of this stuff is a great review for me since we ....

#CCK11 What makes Connectivism unique?
Lars Was, eConnections
An interesting question for this week. What is it that makes connectivism unique!? Well, for me it is one thing in particular. The natural way of doing things. I really believe that connectivism has a very biological way of being. Making connections is something that happens in nature everywhere! From the way we are build, [...] [Link] 2011-02-07T20:14:55 [Comment]

CCK11: Teachers who matter
leahgrrl, Connexions
I can remember all of my primary school teachers (but I’ll keep their names private here). My second grade teacher, frustrated that I completed work quickly and promptly got bored and fussy, found a speed reading machine and set me to that task. In third grade, again acting out, I was sent to kindergarten twice [...] [Link] 2011-02-07T19:04:39 [Comment]

Delicious & CCK08
ruthdemitroff, e-learning thoughts
A member of the CCK08 (the first Connectivism class led by George & Stephen) put everyone's blogs on Delicious. I opened a Delicious account, put those pages on my account and didn't post to Delicious much after that.Because of CCK11,I decided to revisit Diigo and Delicious. Discovered there were some advantages to having the links to class members blogs.1. They are in a variety of languages. Over the years, one would accumulate a list of bloggers on connectivism writing in .... [Link] 2011-02-07T16:54:00 [Comment]

Rhizomes, metaphor utility, constraints
EML Tech, Search results in Emerging Technologies
I have a few thoughts after reading much and thinking about the material we covered last week in CCK11:Rhizomatic knowledge seems a generally good fit for describing connective knowledge and the types of networks valued by connectivists. They represent open, decentrailized, desegregated, and dis-integrated entities. Deleuze and Guattari use the concept to abolish limits and express an infinite range of possibility and combination. The rhizome is also a "natural" metaphor and .... [Link] 2011-02-07T16:22:00 [Comment]

CCK11 How I see criticism and learning theories
suifaijohnmak, Suifaijohnmak's Weblog
I am glad to learn Ailsa’s views about ANT and Connectivism. Your quote: “Criticism that hands down sentences sends me to sleep; I’d like a criticism of scintillating leaps of the imagination.” resonated with my experience. Criticism is like a … Continue reading → [Link] 2011-02-07T14:30:14 [Comment]
