Connectivist - Istanbul University Journal of Communication Sciences focuses on the field of communication science, particularly exploring related issues from a connectionist perspective. Connectivism is a theoretical approach in the fields of cognitive science and artificial intelligence that emphasizes the role of the nervous system and networks. Therefore, the journal may cover the analysis of communication phenomena using connectionist theory, such as studying the mechanisms of information dissemination in the online environment, user interaction and information diffusion patterns in social media, etc; It may also involve constructing communication models and theories based on connectionism to explain complex communication behaviors and processes; Research on connectionism in different communication situations (such as online and offline, different cultural backgrounds, etc.); And explore the intersection and integration of connectionism with other communication theories or disciplines.

This publication is mainly aimed at scholars, researchers, and students in the field of communication science. For scholars specializing in communication theory research, this journal provides a platform for exchanging connectionist related communication theories and research results, which helps to promote the theoretical development of this specific field. Researchers can obtain the latest research ideas and methods from journals to provide references for their projects. Students majoring in related fields can learn about the cutting-edge dynamics and research trends of connectionism in the field of communication science by reading this journal, broaden their academic horizons, and lay a foundation for their own learning and research.
