Details

This could mean the ability to "follow" or "watch" users. Or the ability to ask questions on a teaching kit or make. Etc. We should explore some solutions here. MVP would probably be to allow users to connect with one another outside of this platform, so linking to their twitter/google+/emails from the profile page.
An early version of profile accidentally allowed others to post tiles to their wallls - it would be neat if the profile could morph into a way to contact people and stay in touch.

Some additional points from Laura in bug 963271

---

Seems like there's 3 distinct types of connections we have to think around:

1. Mentors connecting with other Mentors for online community: professional development, peer review, feedback, resource sharing etc.
2. Mentors connecting with other local mentors for sustainable community engagement.
3. Mentors connecting with their learners to assess and assist.

Can they all be functionally the same? Are there more?
Moving this to the front of my queue, since Brett has room to work with me on this over the next week.
The webmaker.org site is no longer developed.
