What made me “wow” this week by reading the article “Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age” is the authors propose Connectivism – a new learning theory. In the new era of technological development, we have changed the way we learn. We have added a lot of learning methods compared to the past, such as the Internet. In the Internet world, we can quickly extract information and knowledge.

The “wonder” I’d want to expand on a concern raised in the article regarding learning theory and the impact of technology and new sciences (chaos and networks) on learning: How can we continue to keep pace in a rapidly evolving information ecosystem? My point of view is to develop a personal network of your own. You can expand your knowledge by using the resources and connections of the network. For example using social media (Twitter, Facebook…). Through this, you can integrate into your favorite circle, so you can quickly grasp some of the latest information, so as to keep up with the trend of the times.

What makes me feel “wow” this week is about the video”What is a Personal Learning Network (PLN)?”. With the progress and application of the Internet, we can also acquire more knowledge in the Internet. We can quickly grasp and exchange information through different social media (such as Facebook, Twitter). The era of the Internet has made us change many ways of living and learning, and realize the way of learning at home. It also greatly shortens the distance between people. So what makes me “wow” is that the internet brings different experiences and ways as I grow up.

A “wonder” in the article “Networked Privacy“, the author mentions that our privacy is becoming more and more networked. Makes me want to know more about how people will go about regulating and protecting data normalization and privacy.
