Frances Bell has posted the outline of a paper she has authored on the Connectivism course she was a part of last fall. Her argument was annealed in discussion during the course: " if connectivism is not willing to be mutable knowledge as it extends its network, then it is self-contradictory. In other words, it is not behaving like the knowledge and networks described in the theory of connectivism. I would recommend that it exploit its current weak and latent ties to Actor Network Theory (ANT) and other descriptive theories of change that have been used successfully in sociotechnical contexts." Meanwhile, Mike Cosgrave is working through the materials and offers his reflections.
