A key point I made in my recent talk is that what connectivism and MOOCs bring that's new to the table is the idea of distributed networks, and correspondingly, distributed cognition. People talk a lot about the content and the collaboration and the environments - but these were all around. The key idea here is that all this is distributed. That's what comes through as well in this post, where Will Richardson quotes both George Siemens and Joi Ito in this regard. "How do we help our students establish themselves as a “node†in a broad, global network of creativity and learning? Shouldn’t that be one of the fundamental questions that drives our work in schools right now?"
