Learning, on the other hand, is defined in many ways, but the one I am inclined to use is the one by Cobb (2009), “Learning is the lifelong process of transforming information and experience into knowledge, skills, behaviors, and attitudes.”

I Learned About Connectivism From Cartoons | Connectivism | Scoop.it
I LOOOOVE cartoons.  It's the kid in me. Actually, many cartoons these days are not for kids, so I should probably rethink that whole 'kid in me' concept.  I don't just like any cartoons.  It has to be the old cartoons like Tom & Jerry, etc.
