This is a short article that really makes me want to learn more (fortunately there's a set of links to related items at the bottom). It described a type of learning ecosystem, specifically, a 'literacy ecosystem', "a type of learning ecosystem composed of networked people, organizations, and places that support literacy development across the same area." The idea of mapping such an ecosystem is that it helps people understand the range of resources and connections across the field in a region, which allows them to provide better advice and referrals. It also provides guidance on how the existing ecosystem can be grown and developed.
