Summary/Abstract: The increasing advancement of technology in the educational process has resulted in the actualization of the phrase about technology-oriented pedagogy within learning for the digital age. In order to link connectivism with pedagogy, the aim of the paper is to set an analytical approach to connectivism, which is defined as a theory of learning for the digital age within online learning. The aim is concretized on the following tasks: presenting basic assumptions of connectivism as a potential new theory of learning, and connecting it to the idea of learning of Ivan Illich within the theory of deschooling, linking connectivism with previous theories of learning (behaviorism, cognitivism and constructivism), as well as pointing out criticisms of connectivism. Based on the presented literature, conclusions are made about the possibility of application and actualization of connectivism in the future.
