About the Connected Learning Summit

With a unique focus on cross-sector connections and progressive and
catalytic innovation, the Connected Learning Summit brings together leading
researchers, educators, and developers. Our mission is to fuel a growing
movement of innovators harnessing the power of emerging technology to
expand access to participatory, playful, and creative learning. We offer a
variety of sponsorship opportunities for organizations to demonstrate their
commitment to connected learning while aligning with their goals and
initiatives.

CLS was first convened in 2018 <https://2018.connectedlearningsummit.org/>,
launched as a merger between three community events with this shared vision
and values: the Digital Media and Learning Conference
<https://dmlhub.net/conference/index.html>, the Games+Learning+Society
Conference
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Games,_Learning_%26_Society_Conference>,
and Sandbox
Summit <https://www.pgpedia.com/s/sandbox-summit>. The hosting and
stewardship of the event has continued to evolve in tandem with the
changing conditions of the global pandemic. The UC Irvine’s Connected
Learning Lab <https://connectedlearning.uci.edu/> and MIT’s Scheller
Teacher Education Program and Education Arcade <https://education.mit.edu/>
were the founding hosts of the event. As we have moved online and become a
more international event, we have expanded our roster of partners and
hosts.
