Abstract—The objectives of the research were to analyze and
synthesize the learning theories and concepts and to design a
knowledge review with steps based on connectivism on cloud
computing. The qualitative research was to analyze and
synthesize the learning theories and learning procedures of the
connectivism concept, with a knowledge review concept that was
based on the leaning support activities of students with low
grades. The knowledge review that was based on connectivism
was a learning process to develop knowledge. The research
results revealed that there were five steps in the knowledge
review process, including: 1) determining the conditions for
learning; 2) knowledge finding; 3) knowledge connecting; 4)
knowledge discussions and answering a question; 5) knowledge
presentation. Finally, the knowledge review, which was based
on connectivism, was the learning support activities for students
on cloud computing, being applied both inside and outside the
classroom.
Index Terms—Knowledge review, connectivism, cloud
computing, critical thinking.
