POPSStephen Downes: Learning Networks and Connective Knowledge The purpose of this paper is to outline some of the thinking behind new e-learning technology, including e-portfolios and personal learning environments. Part of this thinking is centered around the theory of connectivism, which asserts that knowledge - and therefore the learning of knowledge - is distributive, that is, not located in any given place (and therefore not 'transferred' or 'transacted' per se) but rather consists of the network of connections formed from experience and interactions with a knowing community.

POPSSiemens & Downes MOOC The connectivism and connected knowledge course looks set to be both amazingly useful and extremely time consuming over the next few months.

POPSLearning 2.0 I think I would rate this as a "must read" (the eBook, that is. The blog is also good)

POPSConnectivism, Facebook, Informal learning All good stuff, even if I probably shouldn't clip google results (I must work out whether this is allowable etiquette or not one day!) Anderson has poorly designed slides (!) but covers a lot of important topics, and rather nicely draws out the differences between groups, networks and collectives, I feel. Vive la revolution!

POPSInformal learning FTW A nice case study, backed up by some handy stats in terms of numbers of student conscious of having learned through using Facebook as opposed to their VLE (Blackboard) in a study not entirely dissimilar to one we are just writing up about!
