Connectivism builds on already-established theories to propose that technology is changing what, how, and where we learn. In their research. Siwmens and Downes identified eight principles of connectivism. The main principles of connectivism are:

Learning and knowledge happen in a diversity of opinions.
Learning is a process of connecting.
Learning may reside in non-human applications.
The capacity to know more is important that what is currently known.
Fostering and maintaining links between nodes is needed to facilitates continual learning.
Ability to see connections between various field, ideas, and concepts, is an important skill. We must learn how to build a link to connect point A to point B.
Accurate. up-to-date information is the intent of all connectivism learning.
Decision-making is itself a learning process.
