Connectivism
This clip on knoledge management helped me to understand connectivism. It is about connecting people.
  • How has your network changed the way you learn?
    My network works as a buffer and grounds the way I perceive my environment.
    It also allows me to see progress as in a timeline and areas that I intend to grow.
  • Which digital tools best facilitate learning for you?
    I am a visual learner and often, I find myself referring Youtube first, then I go to databases, and blogs.  Youtube is definetly my favorite tools because, I am able to unpack
    question as they are demonstrated by other experts and novices.
  • How do you learn new knowledge when you have questions?
    Again, when I have questions, I first go through a process of refining the questions
    and then I ask myself what does it look like?
  • I also find myself using a checklist methodology, which means whatever topic
    I am about to research, I will use youtube as a visual checklist to help limit the amount of time
    I spend on a topic.

  1. I am also enthralled with the broad expanse of knowledge available via YouTube. I often go to this source for lesson content or direct my students there in order to supplement class instruction. How do you tell to difference between experts and novices on YouTube? What is your definition of an expert? How can the content in the video clips be validated and trusted?

    Thanks for your insights.

  2. Liked the video clip for the visual. And I also love YouTube as a tool for learning. I often look there to find information to help me learn how to to things that I'm not familiar with when using technology. It has pulled me through when I was just about to throw in the towel lol.
