Connectivism

I viewed the following wiki on Connectivism: http://su10-bceol.wikispaces.com/Group+E+6-A-1

I agree with their statement, "In his 2006 publication Connectivism: a new learning theory Ploen Verhagen opines that Connectivism is not a learning theory, but rather a pedagogy, since it deals with the reasons for and content of learning, rather than explains how learning takes place." For example, one principle of connectivism is the ability to see connections between fields, ideas, and concepts is a core skill. This is a reason, but does not explain how the learning takes place.

I also agree that Connectivism is relevent to teaching practices. Teachers are no longer lecturing. Teachers are now taking the tasks of amplifying, aggregating, facilitating, and modeling network learning. Teacher centered classrooms are moving to Student centered classrooms with teachers helping the learning.
