My master's degree program is Master of Arts in Learning & Teaching. Despite not having a job in teaching in an actual classroom yet (ever since I graduated undergrad), my master program is indeed very very helpful. I would like to study theories on learning, specifically learning in the digital age.
Exactly right now, I'm supposed to be reviewing on Learner-Centered Teaching (comprehensive examinations coming up)... Which is why I haven't really posted anything substantial in my blog for the past month.
I haven't "attended" any MOOC classes recently either, so there wasn't really anything to post. Although I should be posting things about Learner-Centered Teaching huh?
I tried searching for a MOOC on Learner-Centered Education, but I have found none yet T_T.
Anyway, this post is just a reminder for myself to go work on these ideas in learning
Connectivism & Rhizomatic Learning.
To start with, I should read George Siemens' blog to learn more about Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age.
And Dave Cormier's blog to learn more about Rhizomatic Learning: Why We Teach
I can't believe... They've been working on this since 2004 & 2008 (respectively).
I feel like I have decades to catch up with. What have I been doing since then??
Okay, I shouldn't be too harsh on myself. To justify... I was an undergrad and I was taking my masters.. each moment in my life, I was working my way in different sort of things.
It's just... I reaaaaally wanna work on these things already.
I want to work on my thesisss. =)
