11. a pedagogy in which knowledge is not a destination but an ongoing activity
At its heart, connectivism is the thesis that knowledge is
distributed across a network of connections, and therefore that
learning consists of the ability to construct and traverse those
networks.
Knowledge, therefore, is not acquired, as though it were a
thing. It is not transmitted, as though it were some type of
communication.

At this point, we appear to have a 19th century curriculum,
20th century buildings and organizations and
21st century students facing an undefined future.

44. Education, for most people, means
trying to lead the child to resemble
the typical adult of his society ...
but for me and no one else, education
means making creators...
You have to make inventors,
innovators—not conformists
- Bringuier, 1980, p. 132
45. Wikipedia
Vygotsky's main work was in developmental
psychology, and he proposed a theory of the
development of higher cognitive functions in
children that saw the emergence of the
reasoning as emerging through practical
activity in a social environment.
During the earlier period of his career he
argued that the development of reasoning
was mediated by signs and symbols, and
therefore contingent on cultural practices and
language as well as on universal cognitive
processes.
46. We do not learn from experience...
we learn from reflecting on experience
- Mind in Society
Failure is instructive.
The person who really thinks learns quite
as much from his failures
as from his successes.
