Kawka, Marta; Larkin, Kevin; Danaher, P. A. – International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning, 2011
Emergent learning describes learning that occurs when participants interact and distribute knowledge, where learning is self-directed, and where the learning destination of the participants is largely unpredictable (Williams, Karousou, & Mackness, 2011). These notions of learning arise from the topologies of social networks and can be applied to…
