What is “Personalized Learning?”
Working Definition:
Students’ learning experiences–what they learn, and how, when, and where they learn it–are tailored to their individual needs, skills and interests, and enable them to take ownership of their learning.
Although where, how, and when they learn might varyaccording to their needs, students also develop deep connections to each other, their teachers, and other adults.(reference: Jobs for the Future, Students at the Center)
