Compared to theories like constructivism, behaviorism and humanism, connectivism learning theory is a relatively new theory on the scene. It’s also one of the few theories that takes our digital age into account. In this article, we’ll walk through the theory’s history, principles and how it links to online learning. What is Connectivism Learning Theory? Who would have thought that your car would be able to have a search engine in it? We’ve come a long way and we’re still going. This grand interconnected tapestry of information has helped to fuel connectivism learning theory. ‘The thesis that knowledge is distributed across a network of connections, and therefore that learning consists of the ability to construct and traverse those networks.’ In other words, learners absorb new knowledge through the connections that they make.

Things you can learn from marketing when becoming a UX designer I’ve been in the marketing business for a few years now and it’s been a journey changing careers to UX. I didn’t always think I would be a product designer, I didn’t even know about the job till my last year of college. I thought I was a goner, focusing on marketing instead of UX in college, but the funny thing is I’ve been learning UX. Where you may ask? Well marketing silly! What is User Experience Design? User experience, or UX, is a user’s experience of using a product. UX design begins with user research. You can see from the image below that the UX for products can be broken down into 3 key areas: look, feel and usability. The look of a product is not only the aesthetic appeal, but also how it creates credibility and trust with users and captures the spirit of what the user expects. The feel of a product is all about creating something that is a “joy to use”; that is, crafting positive, pleasant emotions in users as they interact with a product or react to the use of that product.
5 passive-aggressive phrases that 'make people respect you less': Public speaking expert Passive-aggressive behavior isn't always intentional. As a speech and communications expert, I've found that people who have these tendencies often just struggle with being honest about their emotions. But when you send mixed messages by failing to be straightforward, problems and tensions can go unresolved and people make assumptions about how you feel. It may even make people respect you less. The most successful communicators get to the point and avoid these phrases that only serve to irritate the listener: 1. I call this one a "throat clearer" — an indirect attempt to demand attention or a faster response. These phrases only camouflage your request and make the other person think you're trying to nag, blame or be bossy. What to say instead: Be direct. 2. This phrase almost always prefaces something annoying or offensive. The lazy, self-serving logic behind it is that if you tell people in advance that you're going to be rude, it's okay to go ahead and do so. 3. 4. 5. Don't miss: 1. 2.

· Äntligen Krogguidens stora Semmelprovning 2022! Vilken semla tar fettisdagen till nästa nivå? Äntligen! Restriktionerna lättar lagom till fettisdagen och ingen är förstås gladare än Krogguiden, eftersom vi nu kan röra oss fritt bland stadens hantverksbagerier. Bara tanken på semlans fluffiga grädde och generösa fyllning är som ett balsam för själen. I år var det oerhört jämnt i toppstriden och små detaljer som avgjorde tävlingen. Och som vi har längtat! Häng med när vår expertjury smakar sig fram till Stockholms bästa semla 2022. I likhet med tidigare år tar vi även hjälp av den semmeltokige börsjournalisten Gabriel Mellqvist, mannen med näsa för både aktiekurser och fastlagsbullar. Som den konservativa och principfasta jury vi är har vi enbart testat traditionella semlor. Ett stycke förväntansfull jury redo att gå loss! Så här gick testet till: Vår mästerliga expertpanel under ledning av Anna Björlin testade totalt 20 stycken semlor. Under testets gång betygsätter vi alltid smak och textur på grädde, mandelmassa och bulle och fastställer därefter ett helhetsbetyg mellan 1-5. Animo
