Connected learning is learning through relationships.A new culture emerges as teachers shift away from a paradigm of isolation and closed doors.Share a deep commitment to understanding ideas related to teaching and learning.A major shift in posture from expert to learner – open to and accepting of new ideas, which means they are willing to receive constructive criticism from colleagues serving as critical friends.Connected learners collaborate online, use social media to interact with colleagues around the glove engage in conversations and bring what they learn online back to their classrooms, schools, and districts.
Start the day off with a cup of coffee in the morning and reading through the morning tweets.A calculus teacher gets back to me with an answer to a question about a FRQ.I find a great article on the engagement of students in the math classroom, download the link, and save it to my “Pocket”I then check in with Feeddler to my RSS feeds to which I subscribe.In class that day, I will be implementing a strategy that I read about from a colleague.I then create a video for my students and post it on youtube.
