Knowledge, Learning, Community

This is a review of literatire related to connectivism, though I wouldn't say that it applies specifically to the employment of connectivism during the pandemic as the title implies. I would say it's a reasonable accurate portrayal of connectivism in broad strokes, though I would probably quibble pedantically with many of the details. My major criticism would bee that I don't think it grasps sufficiently the idea of knowledge and learning as emergent phenomena, rather that replicated through transmission of content.
