According to Siemens (2008) connectivism is the new paradigm for learning. Furthermore learning is a network formation process of connecting specialized nodes or information sources. The ability to see connections and recognize patterns and make sense between fields, ideas, and concepts is the core skill for individuals today. In this changing learning environment learning support should be reviewed. This study reveals traditional forms of Vygotsky’s ‘scaffolding’ concept based on the connectivist perspective. The study discusses the use of mobile applications in instructional scaffolding for learners to learn in a network, social scaffolding for them to exist in a network, technical scaffolding to assist their utilization of tools belonging to the network society, and administrative scaffolding to allow them to manage their educational process in this informal mechanisms and learning environment by using the mobile applications.
