\u201cThe first reason to learn online with others is opportunity\u201d (Dron & Anderson, 2014). One of the opportunities an online Master\u2019s Degree gives the student, is the ability to form networks and communities, types of impact structures. As stated before, \u201cmy goal and purpose to support the cultivation of my digital presence in this course is to meaningfully utilize the current technology I have in order to make them more than just tools, but agents of change\u201d (Regan, 2019, para. 1). Impact structures can be a dynamic tool to allow my plan to be realized. This course is filled with technology and allows myself to gain access to multiple impact structures. We know now that \u201cthere are more networked devices than people in the world\u201d (Broadband Commission, 2012, p. 44). Dron and Anderson (2014) state that these devices will \u201callow us to connect with networks and communities;\u201d and more specifically, they will allow myself to connect with networks and communities I currently am apart of and new impact structures that will develop throughout this course. The valuable role impact structures have on learning cannot be understated. I look forward to growing and effectively using my networks and communities around me to succeed in my digital learning plan.<\/p>\n
