I have little to add to this other than that the collection of papers provides a distinctive European perspective on MOOCs. As a consequence (?), the focus is more on the pedagogy than on the economics of higher education (@pbsloep)

"I will not address the question of whether this is really a “new” learning theory, or whether it’s a learning theory at all, which are some issues that have been discussed in the research literature. I’m also not going to comment on the relationships between connectivism and constructivism, behaviourism, and cognitivism, as I have a woeful lack of knowledge of such theories. I’m just going to try to figure out some of (not all of) the basic ideas/arguments in what Siemens has written, and give my comments."

"I have chosen to review Dunaway’s conceptual paper on connectivisim and information literacy. Besides defining connectivism as “learning that takes place when learners make connections between ideas located throughout their personal learning networks, which are composed of numerous information resources and technologies” (Dunaway, 2011, p. 676), "

"I recently did a mindmap on my personal and professional connections (See below). I have to say that my past achievements were not products of just my hard work, ambition, and drive. Although personal motivation has a lot to do with one’s success, I realized that my connections helped me get to where I am and they will also help me get to where I am going. "

"In this week’s learning resources we explored the Social Learning Theory and Connectivism as they relate to acquiring knowledge.

"In the last year, MOOCs have gotten a tremendous amount of publicity. Last November, the New York Times decided that 2012 was “the Year of the MOOC,” and columnists like David Brooks and Thomas Friedman have proclaimed ad nauseum that the MOOC “revolution” is a “tsunami” that will soon transform higher education. As a Time cover article on MOOCs put it—in a rhetorical flourish that has become a truly dead cliché—“College is Dead. Long Live College!”"
