Development
Kerr (2007) identified the new theory should:
replace older theories that had become inferior
build on old ones without completely disregarding them

2. Features:
Social and cultural context Work experience – learning – knowledge Contact Technology as mediator Adding ‘know-where’ to know-how and
know-what

A network with nodes and connections:
‘that knowledge is distributed across a network of connections, and therefore that learning consists of the ability to construct and traverse those networks’ (Downes)
