Week 2
I enjoyed the discussions concerning Connectivism and the interrelated aspects of the idea. The explosion of information that is available on-line seems ever-growing. Making sense of information is a key idea to navigating through the mounds of on-line information. A trusted information source seems to be of great importance to many people in the group. It is also a great concern of mine, as I allow students to gather and process information from on-line source. Students need to understand differentciation between fact and gossip. The mere fact that information is posted on-line does not deem the information to be accurate or reliable. I would agree that learners need to be guided through on-line material and shown proper usage, trust-worthiness, and application. Enjoyed this week's class and looking forward to further discussions on wiki!
