APOP Lunchtime Presentation, Association for the Educational Application of Computer Technology at the Post-Secondary Level-Montréal (APOP), Montreal, Online via the Via Conferencing System, Seminar, Mar 17, 2010.

In this online presentation for APOP (Association for the Educational Application of Computer Technology at the Post-Secondary Level-Montréal) I discuss the concept of decentralized learning. I begin with the physical model, as instantiated in the Connectivism course, then outline the epistemology of knowledge production, then describe the pedagogy of personal learning, and conclude with success factors. A long Q&A in which we discuss numerous issues follows.
