Constructivist Foundations
Various Authors, Website, February 9, 2011.

---

This journal requires a free registration, but the contents are well worth giving over your email address. The focus is on the foundations of constructivism. In particular, the first full article in the journal, The Constructivist Challenge, is a nice outline of the origins and dimensions of constructivist theory. I didn't want to put an entire journal on the recommended readings, but if you have time, I recommend a reading of the 16 issues currently available. [Comment]

Actor Network Theory (ANT)

I agree that ANT never pretended to be a learning theory, so why ANT in a week which subject is "What makes Connectivism distinct from other learning theories? My try here: http://redeflexiones.blogspot.com/2011/02/why-ant. [Comment]

Connective Tissue and Information
Debbie Kroeker, Rethinking Learning and Technology
I came to this week's CCK11 Elluminate session knowing that connective tissue is, simply put, that which holds our body together. I take my connective tissue for granted most days. Don't we all? But, if you think of it, it would be impossible to exist without it since it "supports, anchors, and connects" the different parts of our bodies, while providing flexibility and order. The more we exercise our connective tissue (bones, tendons and ligaments), the stronger it .... [Link] 2011-02-03T16:56:00 [Comment]

What is a PLN ? For #cck11 I use this blog, facebook group cck11, twitter #cck11, Cmaps, Delicious, and some email connections to warn me when someone does make a comment or a new post.

Focusing on Network Theory #CCK11
, Flight Path
During the last couple of weeks in the CCK11 open course, I’ve looked at Network Theory and Connective Knowledge. The readings from Week 3 about Connective Knowledge made me think about what it is I want from participating in the course. Basically, by my taking this course I aim to develop an understanding of Connectivism [...] [Link] [Comment]
