George Siemens was kind enough to speak with our Multiliteracies group on January 19, 2009 about (what do you think?) connectivism; talking on different ways in which learning can be described as networked, and the importance of looking past external connections to focus on conceptual connections as a measure of depth of understanding. Vance's notes on the occasion are here: http://vancestevens.tumblr.com/post/71536391/connectivism-learning-theory-or-pastime-of-the and the live session was recorded in Elluminate (with slides and concurrent text chat): http://tinyurl.com/090119siemens. Amy Meckelborg is using Elluminate software to convert the Elluminate recordings to the mp3 files that are being podcast in this set of resources for Multiliteracies for Social Networking and Collaborative Learning Environments, a 2009 EVO session: http://goodbyegutenberg.pbwiki.com/ The picture is from http://www.flickr.com/photos/stephen_downes/2691825948/
