Connected Learning

The principle of “connected learning” forms the framework of our Erasmus+ project. We acknowledge that we are learning from different sources: opportunities, relationships and interests. When we combine all three into one learning experience we are on the way to achieving the skills and competences for the 21st century.

“… learning that is socially embedded, interest-driven, and oriented toward educational, economic, or political opportunity.”    (Ito et al., 2013)

Interesting activities for young people to explore connected learning can be found on the link below:
