In this Learning Style: concepts and evidence In a new assessment of the available evidence, authors Harold Pashler, Mark McDaniel, Doug Rohrer, and Robert Bjork conclude that the learning-styles hypothesis has little, if any, empirical grounding.  A large number of [...] January 7, 2010

The most influential source to me was the visitor vs resident -description and the [...] January 7, 2010

CCK09 Relational Map
C. Baker's My Map

C. Baker's My Map

January 7, 2010

CCK09 Christopher Baker’s ‘My Map’.
This is a great video about Christopher Baker’s ‘My Map’ which is a Relational rather than a Concept map. Christopher rendered the relationships between himself and the individuals in his address book. He had archived 60,000 email addresses and contacts throughout his life and his representations of these relationships in the video are quite beautiful. January 7, 2010

CCK09 Category-based intergroups & Network-based intragroups
Yuki (2007) identifies two types of Individual-Group Relations in the West and East. In this view, in the West the Category-based ingroup is a depersonalized entity, defined in comparison with outgroups and the notion of the Collective Self is accepted. Alternatively, in East Asia the Network-based intragroup is viewed as a personal network among members [...] January 7, 2010

Re: Would anyone be interested in designing and running some Cultural Academy workshops at Surrey University regarding learning networks and connecting?
by Asako Yoshida.  

I am observing with a great interest that what's actually happening in this course environment about Connectivism are some specific examples of connectivism in action. The earlier Elluminate workshop organized by Frances and this one in the process of coordination are the real examples. It seems to me what's happening in these examples are very similar to what the researchers found in Digital Youth Project. http://www.boingboing.net/2008/11/20/digital-youth-projec.html The member of these projects are coming together with a common interest and socializing to bring respective project together. In the process, people volunteer to play some key roles. Also similarly to the kids in the Project, the members involved exchange respect, reputation, and experiences that are not static but evolving.

In the course, the discourse around Connectivism was a high level theory, but it all seems to come down to how people mobilize their interests and come together by socializing among themselves. In the process, they pick up some related skills and new ideas. I referred to the Digital Youth Project in my final presentation.

Cheers, Asako

Hi All,

Nellie, Eduardo and I met on Friday evening. We are still at very early stages of discussing questions about what it could mean? what is the benefit to students? what would be the value of learning networks?

Eduardo and Nellie have started a wiki page, if you are interested in exploring this further, please do contribute, your comments and edits would be very welcome.

Roy, Ken - if you are interested in still being involved - it would be helpful to find a vision for the actual possible content?

Any thoughts, suggestions?

Hi Nicola, my apologies, I had to work late on Friday evening, so I missed the discussion.  I will have a look at the wiki page next week - is there a particular page?  I had a quick look, and it wasnt obvious to me.
