Ninth-grader Charles Raben has seen first-hand that by connecting the many spheres of his life -- peers, interests and academic pursuits -- new learning experiences can and will present themselves in both organized and unstructured ways. In the summer of 2012, Charles utilized his photography skills and the petition website Change.org to capture and share the story of Jerry Delakas, a longtime local newsstand operator who was in danger of losing his New York City license over a technicality.
"I wanted to have that experience of creating change myself. " The petition-making process proved to be a life-changing learning experience for the teen.

Connected Learning Principles. We are living in a historical moment of transformation and realignment in the creation and sharing of knowledge, in social, political and economic life, and in global connectedness. There is wide agreement that we need new models of education suited to this historic moment, and not simply new models of schooling, but entirely new visions of learning better suited to the increasing complexity, connectivity, and velocity of our new knowledge society. Fortunately, we are also able to harness the same technologies and social processes that have powered these transformations in order to provide the next generation with learning experiences that open doors to academic achievement, economic opportunity, and civic engagement. What would it mean to think of education as a responsibility of a distributed network of people and institutions, including schools, libraries, museums and online communities?
At the core of connected learning are three values: Interactive Video Conferencing Services - Education Content - Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration. Connected Learning: Relevance, the 4th R. Connected Learning report. Education - Knowledge - Networking - Skills + Research & Technology (EKNS+RT) - Part 2. Social Media for Teachers: Guides, Resources, and Ideas.
Although students are evermore connected to the social web, many of these networks remain out-of-class digital playgrounds where students congregate.

There are many gray areas for teachers to navigate, like setting guidelines, accessibility at school, and student safety.
But to help teachers navigate this ever-changing landscape of social media tools, here are some of the best guides on the web for four popular networks, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest.
