Connectivism

Connectivism has emerged in recent years and has gained relevance particularly for the digital society. Connectivism is in the process of development and is currently controversial for many critics.

In connectivism, the collective connection between all the “nodes” in a network is what gives rise to new forms of knowledge. Knowledge is created beyond the individual level of human participants and is constantly changing. Knowledge in networks is not controlled or created by any formal organization, however organizations can and should “connect” to this world of constant flow of information and extract its meaning. Knowledge in connectivism is chaotic, it manifests between nodes that come and go and information flows through networks interconnected with many other networks.
