Rhizomatic learning


“A rhizomatic plant has no centre and no defined boundary; rather, it is made up of a number of semiindependent nodes, each of which is capable of growing and spreading on its own, bounded only by the limits of its habitat.” Source: Cormier, D. (2008) http://davecormier.com/edblog/

Rhizomatic learning


“In the rhizomatic view, knowledge can only be negotiated, [and is] a personal knowledge-creation process with mutable goals and constantly negotiated premises.” Source: Cormier, D. (2008) http://davecormier.com/edblog/
