Abstract
With the entry into the information age and the development of new technologies and the creation of networked learning, the theory of connectivism learning was born. The aim of the current research is to design an educational design model that fits this approach. Inductive qualitative content analysis method was used to obtain the categories of connectivism educational design model. In this way, first the sources related to this issue were studied and then categorization was done, and then from the categories, sub-categories and main categories of connectivism-oriented educational design model were extracted. The statistical population included all the articles, books, magazines, and internet sites about the theory of connectivism, from which samples were theoretically selected. In order to determine the order and sequence of the model categories and the shape of the educational design model, 7 educational technology experts were interviewed. Based on this research, a connectivism-oriented educational design model was designed, which is more specific and has more details than the previous models, which can be used for different educational designers both conceptually and operationally.
