Networked learning

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Networked learning is an activity that focuses on establishing and maintaining connections with people and information, and to collaborate in such a way so as to support one another's learning, hence - a networked learning.

Since the development of the Internet as a dominant medium for communication of information, the practice of Networked Learning has tended to focus on its use, especially since the emergence of Web 2.0.
