This mindmap represents the different ways you will interact with connected learning throughout this semester and beyond. Part of being a connected, networked learner is knowing where to go, and whom to connect with to meet your current learning needs. Being openly networked, this subject provides access both to students currently enrolled in LCN 600, and to those in the wider community who may be interested in learning more about connected learning in general.
