For Educators | Using Connected Learning in the Classroom
Connected Learning is a practical teaching resource for classroom educators. The site brings together lesson ideas, classroom strategies, and teaching activities created by teachers. Rather than focusing on policy or training programs, the material here focuses on the everyday work of teaching — planning lessons, engaging students, and running a class effectively.
If you are new to teaching, begin with classroom management and lesson planning. These articles explain how lessons are structured, how teachers introduce new topics, and how student behaviour and participation are guided.
If you are already teaching, the lesson units and activity ideas can be adapted for different subjects and year levels. Many materials were originally shared by teachers and have been preserved so they remain available to other educators.
Where to Begin
→ Classroom Management
Articles on handling behaviour, maintaining attention, and creating a productive learning environment. These pages focus on what teachers do during lessons to keep students involved and on task.
→ Lesson Planning & Activities
Examples of classroom activities, lesson units, and classroom projects that can be adapted across subjects. The lesson materials provide starting points teachers can modify for their own classes.
→ Teaching Roles
Explanations of teaching responsibilities such as subject teaching, special education support, and field experience. These pages help educators understand what different teaching roles involve in practice.
→ College & Preparation
Information relevant to students and future teachers preparing for education pathways and professional development.
Connected Learning is an informational teaching publication. Materials are provided as examples and ideas that teachers can adapt to their own curriculum requirements and school policies.
