This is a long and detailed post I've consulted a number of times since its publication last September but for some reason haven't included here. Let me correct that now. It is a lengthy and authoritative overview of developments in artificial intelligence, and in particular, neural networks and connectionism. The work here parallels and is obviously influential on my own thinking about learning and cognition in general, and connectivism in particular. It is recommended for anyone interested in learning theory and should be taken into account by those designing, developing and deploying educational technology.
