Learning Ecosystems
The National Commission on Learning Ecosystems (NCLE) is a two-year project to examine how place-based models of learning ecosystems are working to improve public education and help children, youth, and families thrive. These ecosystems are made up of varied sites of learning in a geographic community, including schools and districts, libraries, museums, early learning programs, afterschool and summer programs, recreation centers, technology hubs, public media stations, post-secondary campuses, university extension centers, and more.
A growing number of national, state, and local leaders are already highlighting the groundbreaking potential of connecting these sites of learning. The commission brings together more than 20 national leaders and 12 regional leaders to build on this momentum. We will be synthesizing work to date and examining how these ecosystems can continue to expand and support children, youth, and families, especially those too often left out of the learning experiences needed for twenty-first century success.
