Some good “ideation” in this link, thanks Gary.
Leads to present examination of how Tumblr, and other new forms of resources can support DLE… especially in the Social Learning Construct area. A good interface that enables connectivity and collaboration is, all by itself, a core value proposition.
We have already posted the story about Mitra here… as well as fronting his TED video.

And creativity in learning, including the Montessori approach of hands on, has been noted in various posts, especially in graphics showing retention is best for learners when they do some aspect of “teaching” it to others. Ideation, or re-creation of material, if you will.
Group collaborative learning closely related, as “doing it together” incorporates some elements of teaching it to others in the group… reformulating and recreating “In your own words” or “in your own cellphone you tubes”.
