Introduction

The term connected learning is used in several contexts. In this entry we define it's use by the McArthur foundation to describe a specific kind of pedagogy.

The Mozilla Open Badges for Lifelong Learning white paper (2011) summarizes Connected learning as:

1) participatory, demanding active social engagement and contribution in knowledge communities and collectives;

2) learner-centered, empowering individuals of all ages to take ownership of their learning linked across a wide range of settings -- in school, at home, and informally with friends and peers;

3) interest-driven, propelled by the energies of learners pursuing their unique passions and specialties;

4) inclusive, drawing in people from diverse backgrounds and walks of life across generational, socioeconomic, and cultural boundaries.
