Science & Art of Learning Pedagogy – structured, formal K12 learning Andragogy – structured, formal adult learning Heutagogy –study of self-directed learning; includes unstructured, self-directed & self- determined learning; focus on metacognition, knowledge sharing, creativity, original works, etc. (Hase & Kenyon, 2000; Blaschke, 2012)

Learning Theories Learner & Learning Centered Transformative Learning, Learning Community Constructivism & Social Constructivism Connectivism – Learning Theory for the Digital Age – “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. It shares with some other theories a core proposition, that knowledge is not acquired, as though it were a thing. Knowledge is, on this theory, literally the set of connections formed by actions and experience.” (Siemens & Downes, 2011)
