Advances in technology and the rise of interconnected devices have ushered in new ways of accessing, communicating, and showcasing that have the potential to help us reimagine education as a networked ecosystem, supporting learners and information to move freely across connected nodes including and beyond school. In this paper, I explore the idea of recognizing and designing for a healthy learning ecosystem that supports freedom of movement, supporting crossing physical boundaries of location, domain-specific boundaries of different topical areas, and conceptual boundaries of value and goodness of fit. The paper begins with a look of my own childhood, serving as both an example and metaphor for the idea of freedom of movement. I then share three design-based implementation initiatives from the Digital Youth Network to support freedom of movement. I close with a suggested framework for defining a healthy learning ecosystem, one that utilized existing infrastructure and sociotechnical systems to leverage movement within communities towards the goal of optimizing youth development.

行动自由：定义、研究和设计健康学习生态系统的组成部分

技术的进步和互联设备的兴起带来了访问、交流和展示的新方式，这些方式有可能帮助我们将教育重新构想为一个网络生态系统，支持学习者和信息在包括学校内外的连接节点之间自由移动。在本文中，我探索了识别和设计一个健康的学习生态系统的想法，该生态系统支持行动自由、支持跨越位置的物理边界、不同主题区域的特定领域边界以及价值和适合度的概念边界。这篇论文从我自己的童年开始，作为行动自由理念的一个例子和隐喻。然后，我分享了来自数字青年网络的三个基于设计的实施计​​划，以支持行动自由。
