The concept of connected learning or what some prefer to call it networked learning has been gaining traction within the educational for the last few years. Part of the reason behind this is the massive uptake of web technologies and their seamless integration in education. However, technology is only one constitutive element in the full picture Connected learning which includes other important elements like experiences, communities, academics, and many more.
Mia from anethicalisland succinctly sums up the core philosophy and principles informing the concept of connected learning which I am sharing with your below. And if you want to learn more about networked learning , I highly recommend this wonderful book of Eric Sheninger entitled ” Digital Leadership: Changing Paradigms for Changing Times“.
