This document discusses how learning is shifting from isolated to connected experiences due to new digital technologies and social media. It notes that today's students see participatory and networked learning as normal. It explores how the internet and mobile technologies have made information more abundant, accessible, and collaborative. It highlights new opportunities for open educational resources, online communities, and personalized learning experiences that are no longer constrained by geography. The future of learning is projected to involve greater personalization, real-time collaboration, and opportunities for everyone to teach and learn from each other through open sharing of ideas.
