Les théories et les modèles de l'apprentissage se suivent et ne se ressemblent pas forcément; chacun présente une approche spécifique avec ses avantages et ses limites et on n'a pas toujours intérêt à adopter inconditionnellement l'une ou l'autre de ces approches.
Voici une présentation réalisée sur Prezi qui nous donne à visualiser la quintescence d'une recherche et synthèse d’articles réalisée par Annick Arsenault Carter dans le cadre d'un cours sur "Les apprentissages et les TIC" et portant justement sur un modèle d'apprentissage pas assez médiatisé : Le connectivisme. Que veut dire le connectivisme ? Est-ce vraiment une nouvelle théorie ou un mélange de théories déjà existantes ? A-t-il sa place dans le monde scolaire

Have you wondered what connectivism is? This infographic, using information from Stephen Downes and George Siemens provides this definition for connectivism:
"...the thesis that knowledge is distributed across a network of connections, and therefore that learning consists of the ability to connect and traverse those networks."
What are the 8 principles? They are listed below but you will find much more information in the infographic.
1. Learning and knowledge rest in a diversity of opinions
2. Learning is the process of connecting specialized nodes
3. Learning may reside in non-human appliances
4. Capacity to know is more important than what is currently known
5. Nurturing and maintaining connections is needed to facilitate continual learning
6. The ability to define connections between concepts is important
7. Currency (accurate, up-to-date knowledge) is the intent of all connectivist learning activities
8. Decision-making is a learning process as information can change and what is viewed as correct one day may be incorrect the next
The second part of this infographic focuses on What Does an Online Connectist Course Look Like?
There is much information to be found in this lengthy infographic. It also includes a list of works consulted.
