Connected

Learning

“Connected learning, as its name implies,

works to connect these spheres more

purposefully.

The goal is not to fully integrate these

spheres of learning—each requires its own

autonomous space—but to build

connections, hand-offs, and sites of

translation

in order to reach more young people where

they are. By giving equal weight to all of

these different sites of learning,

we can create more entry points and

diversify the pathways towards learning and

opportunity” (65).
