Connections
• Forming connections with experts outside of courses
• Learner-to-learner connections
• Connections to online communities/resources/journals/blogs

How does evaluation occur?
• Demonstration of competence against established criteria
• Learner creativity• Multi-modal• Challenge: maintain authenticity by
traditional standards• Function of existing in the network
