Identifying how people learn across space, time, and contexts

January 1, 2015 | Media and Technology, Public Programs, Exhibitions, Informal/Formal Connections
Today’s standardized testing methods are too narrow for measuring 21st-century learning that occurs across time and diverse social contexts, from formal to informal and embodied to virtual. This paper uses the concept of “connected learning” to illustrate what 21st-century education involves; it then describes research methods for documenting this learning.
