Connectivity Theory

Connectivity Theory suggests that knowledge is interconnected, much like a web. Instead of viewing facts or concepts in isolation, this theory emphasizes how they relate to and influence one another. When we learn something new, it doesn’t just stand alone; it connects to what we already know, enriching our understanding. For instance, learning about climate change involves understanding science, economics, and social impact, all linked together. This interconnected approach helps in better retention of information and the ability to apply knowledge to real-world situations. Ultimately, it highlights the collaborative nature of learning and understanding.
