"Curation, reflection, and contribution are all equal components within this model. Curation requires learners to evaluate information and organize it. Reflection encourages learners to unpack their learning in public spaces, such as blogs. Contribution demands that learners “give back” to both digital and face-to-face communities either through discussion or production. By engaging in all three parts of this model, educators can ensure that they adequately synthesize and consider important artifacts. This process is a far cry from simply storing and organizing “cool stuff.”

"It's very clear to me that there is a vast difference between using technology and integrating technology. Many schools who claim to be integrating technology are, in my opinion, simply using it, because they have not yet questioned and identified the reasons for using technology. Indeed I've come across administrators in those schools who have been unable to articulate the ways that technology can transform learning - they are still talking about it "enhancing" learning or calling technology "a tool". In such places, it's not surprising to find that some teachers are simply using technology for technology's sake, without developing the habits of mind necessary for the true embedding of technology into their pedagogy. On the other hand, as Kip Rogers writes, I've also experienced schools and classrooms where:"

All participants have been ask to participate through their own blogs. Quite a few participants are new to blogging and it’s really hard to appreciate how you might learn through blogging as part of a connectivist MOOC if you’ve never blogged before.

"It is amazing the accomplishments that I have achieved in the last two weeks, while starting two Educational Technology grad courses.
MY TOP 10 ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 1. Took part in three ETMOOC sessions.
2. Was able to navigate into Blackboard Collaborate. This seemed to work easier on my Mac laptop than on my IMAC due to some downloading issues with Java.
3. Started using Twitter, unlocked my account and began sending tweets. ....."

"At first glance, the intersections between Montessori education and high-quality digital learning are not immediately apparent. To those of us with some knowledge about Montessori methods—based on formal training, general awareness or, as in my case, the observations of a parent whose children attend a Montessori school—its natural materials and deep traditions seem to stand in opposition to the vision of a futuristic, technology-rich digital or blended learning environment."
