Although there are several books on the new network science, none
have discussed education or content for learning on the Internet
until now. Connectivity, the Answer to Ending Ignorance and
Separation: Can You Hear Me Yet? proposes that the new network
science reveals the natural setting of human learning is a web of
nodes and links. The subtitle echoes the book's call for universal
mobile connectivity that will include every man, woman, and child
in the global community. The hot new network science that explains
why we are all separated by about six degrees and why crickets
synchronize their evening love songs is directed here by Judy Breck
for the first time to education. From the same theories, she
describes an entirely new medium of expression platformed in
connectivity and now emerging to create compelling new learning
assets that are nestling into an online webbed matrix of academic
subjects. She argues that standards and grade separation in schools
today are network errors and should be abandoned for the natural
knowledge context formation arising spontaneously within the
Internet. Breck says networks may replace schools altogether and
that one of the great boons universal individual connectivity will
bring, along with the end of ignorance and separation, is the
disappearance of terrorism. Connectivity, she explains, changes
everything when we all study on a common virtual ground and when we
can all be heard. This book contains parallel discussions of how
network connectivity is fundamentally: Diminishing terrorism,
Transforming business enterprises, Becoming a new artistic
expressive medium, Providing a new and different locus for human
knowledge.Connectivity is written for every educator eager to know
about networks.
