	George Siemens and Stephen Downes conducted the first '''M'''assive '''O'''pen '''O'''nline '''C'''ourse in 2008 with approximately 2,300 participants. All course content was available through live presentations and discussions, RSS feeds and online students could participate through collaborative tools, including blog posts, threaded discussions in Moodle and Second Life meetings. This approach has been labeled cMOOC to distinguish it from the more traditional xMOOC offered by EdEx, Coursera, and other providers. See a fuller discussion of MOOCs in [[Delivery mode#MOOC\|Delivery mode]].

	"By navigating the content environment, and selecting content that is relevant to your own personal preferences and context, you are creating an individual view or perspective. So you are first creating connections between contents with each other and with your own background and experience. And working with content in a connectivist course does not involve learning or remembering the content. Rather, it is to engage in a process of creation and sharing. Each person in the course, speaking from his or her unique perspective, participates in a conversation that brings these perspectives together" (Downes, 2012).

	''“Decay in the belief of self is driven not by technology, but by the culture of technologists, especially the recent designs of antihuman software like Facebook, which almost everyone is suddenly living their lives through. Such designs suggest that information is a free-standing substance, independent of human experience or perspective. As a result, the role of each human shifts from being a special entity to being a component of an emerging global computer. This shift has palpable consequences. For one, power accrues to the proprietors of the central nodes on the global computer. . . . Those who are not themselves on a central node (may) find their own cognition gradually turning into a commodity.”''		''“Decay in the belief of self is driven not by technology, but by the culture of technologists, especially the recent designs of antihuman software like Facebook, which almost everyone is suddenly living their lives through.

	This thinking may be just dystopian hyperbole, but when we look around and see everyone with faces buried in their mobile device, we see that something is happening.
