A personalized approach to learning can lay a great foundation that can help you introduce the growth mindset. Personalized learning plans for each child, when well realized, provide a framework that helps children to fix, plan and persist in achieving academic goals. They map the learning that a child needs to acquire in order to be successful in class and ensure that his personal interests and passions play a role in strengthening his learning experiences. Finally, they provide a great route for students to direct their learning in meaningful ways – and it polishes their growth mindset.

Personalized Learning System
In this system, the teacher has the freedom to use the resources and approach that best suits the student. He knows how to use old applications that have been successful on similar students. In addition, the instructor can make a differentiation in the subject according to the different learning style of the student, even in the environment where learning takes place.

In the personalized learning model, each need is met in a different way. Through the learning process, this response is realized through the use of educational content and certain learning tools.

Personalised learning, is a student centred approach to education, where classroom practices begin from the understanding that students all learn differently and are always at a different point in their learning journey to their peers. To adequately support each student on their learning journey, the element of personalisation is vital.The foundation of personalised learning lies in putting the student first taking into account the student’s strengths, opportunities, skills, and interests while also privileging student voice and choice.

In order to achieve personalised learning, schools need resources, staff and protocols for action.

At a glance

Personalized learning is an educational approach that aims to customize learning for each student's strengths, needs, skills, and interests.

Each student gets a learning plan that's based on what they know and how they learn best.

Personalized learning doesn't replace an IEP, a 504 plan, or intervention programs.

To get an idea of what personalized learning is, try to picture a classroom that doesn't have a "one size fits all" approach to education. The teacher doesn't lead all students through the same lessons. Instead, the teacher guides each student on an individualized journey. The what, when, where and how of learning is tailored to meet each student's strengths, skills, needs, and interests.

Students may learn some skills at different paces. But their learning plans still keep them on track to meet the standards for a high school diploma.

That kind of classroom isn't the reality for most students. But it's the end goal of personalized learning, which is already being used successfully in some schools and is expanding in several states. Here's what you need to know.

What personalized learning is

Kids learn in different ways and at different paces. Personalized learning is a teaching model based on that premise. Each student gets a "learning plan" based on how they learn, what they know, and what their skills and interests are. It's the opposite of the "one size fits all" approach used in most schools.

Students work with their teachers to set both short-term and long-term goals. This process helps students take ownership of their learning.

Teachers make sure learning plans or project-based learning match up with academic standards. And they check to see if students are demonstrating the skills they're expected to learn as they progress through their education.

Personalized learning is not a replacement for special education. It's an approach to general education that can work with an Individualized Education Program (IEP), a 504 plan, response to intervention, or other specialized intervention programs.

But accommodations, supports, and accessible learning strategies need to be essential parts of personalized learning. If done well, all students will be more engaged in their learning. And struggling students will get help sooner. If not done well, students with disabilities could fall further behind.

How personalized learning works

No two schools using personalized learning will look exactly the same. But here are four widely used models that schools follow. Each of these models sets high expectations for all students and aligns their learning to a set of rigorous standards.

1. Schools that use learner profiles. This type of school keeps an up-to-date record that provides a deep understanding of each student's individual strengths, needs, motivations, progress and goals. These profiles are updated far more often than a standard report card. And these detailed updates help teachers make decisions to positively impact student learning.

A learner profile also helps students keep track of their own progress. It gives the teacher, the student and, in many schools, the parent a way to know if they need to change a learning method or make changes to goals - before the student does poorly or fails.

2. Schools that use personalized learning paths. This type of school helps each student customize a learning path that responds or adapts based on progress, motivations, and goals. For instance, a school might create a student's schedule based on weekly updates about academic progress and interests.

Each student's schedule is unique. But it's likely to include several learning methods. (These are often called modalities.) The mix might include project-based learning with a small group of peers, independent work on certain skills or complex tasks, and one-on-one tutoring with a teacher.

A personalized learning path allows a student to work on different skills at different paces. But that doesn't mean the school will let a student fall far behind in any area. Teachers closely monitor each student and provide extra support as needed.

3. Schools that use competency-based progression. This type of school continually assesses students to monitor their progress toward specific goals. This system makes it clear to students what they need to master. These competencies include specific skills, knowledge and mindsets like developing resilience.

The student might work on several competencies at the same time. When they master one, they move on to the next. Each student gets the necessary support or services to help master the skills. The emphasis isn't on taking a test and getting a passing or failing grade. Instead, it's about continuous learning and having many chances to show knowledge.

4. Schools using flexible learning environments. This type of school adapts the environment students learn in, based on how they learn best. That includes things like the physical setup of the class, how the school day is structured and how the teachers are allocated.

For example, schools might look for ways to give teachers more time for small group instruction. It's not easy to redesign the way teachers use space, time and resources in the classroom. But this type of design thinking can help student needs reshape the learning environment.

The potential of personalized learning

Personalized learning isn't widely used in schools yet. Many aspects still need to be explored. But this approach has the potential to help reduce the stigma of special education and better meet the needs of kids with learning and thinking differences.

IEPs are too often focused mainly on deficits. But personalized learning paths can balance that by focusing on students' strengths and interests. Together, IEPs and personalized learning can give kids the supports to work on weaknesses and a customized path that engages their interests and helps them "own" their learning.

Personalized learning can also give students the chance to build self-advocacy skills. It encourages them to speak up about what interests them. It also allows them to be equal partners in their learning experience.

Personalized learning has a lot of potential, but it also has some risks. Teachers might not have enough inclusion training to make this approach accessible to all students. They might not know how to support kids with executive functioning issues. They might not know how to track competencies or analyze other kinds of student data.

The key is to make sure that when schools start using personalized learning, teachers have the training to meet your child's needs. And the more you know, the more involved you can be in the conversation.

Key takeaways

There are several models of personalized learning that schools can use.

Personalized learning may help reduce the stigma of special education.

Teachers often need more training to fully include struggling students in personalized learning.

Personalized learning: What you need to know

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Imagine an approach to education that isn't "one size fits all." That's personalized learning. Here's what you need to know about this educational approach.

# data[].attributes.body
"Personalised learning refers to a range of learning experiences and teaching strategies that aim to address the differing learning needs interests and diverse backgrounds of learners.

Often described as student-centered learning this approach uses differentiated learning and instruction to tailor the curriculum according to need. Learners within the same classroom or on the same course work together with shared purpose but each has their own personalized journey through the curriculum."

# data[].attributes.body
The term personalized learning, or personalization, refers to a diverse variety of educational programs, learning experiences, instructional approaches, and academic-support strategies that are intended to address the distinct learning needs, interests, aspirations, or cultural backgrounds of individual students.
For me is important to find the good way to teach every students according to her needs.

Personalized learning requires a difficult balance between the development of the classroom curriculum and the student's abilities and interests, as well as the whole social environment in which the teaching/learning process takes place; the expectations of the student, the parents, the educators, and society in general.
From this perspective, the search for this balance is an arduous task that has to be well planned and tested, in a context of constant social change, and affected by the regular publication of national and international reports (eg. PISA) on students' school performance.
I would say that the most important element of personalized learning focuses on managing the curriculum so that it is adjusted to the developmental state of the student within the time frame of a school year.

A learning environment that takes into account individual differences for each individual plays an important role in personalized learning applications. Many characteristics such as individual differences, students' learning styles, pace, abilities and experiences should be addressed.

Students learn skills that go beyond academia and will help them in the future. Personalized learning typically involves students deciding their own learning process, as we'll discuss below. This teaches students vital skills that will serve them throughout their lives. The most important thing is that sharing in goal setting helps students develop motivation, self-reflection skills and improve their knowledge significantly.

# data[].attributes.body
First we have to gather all the data about our student's abilities and possible disabilities, needs and interests so that we can plan learning activities personaly for them on their own level. Also, the biggest part of this is to give our students the knowledge how to use the learning strategies to achieve the best results andresponsibly take control over the learning process.

# data[].attributes.body
Personalization defines a process that seeks to respect the dignity and uniqueness of each student, improves equity in education, optimizes personal potential, takes into account the needs of all students, but especially those of the vulnerable and less able, and enriches and stimulates engagement students and teachers. In principle, personalization gives the learner increasing control over what they learn, how they learn, when and where they learn, and who they learn with.

Since I met Modern Classrooms Project (https://www.modernclassrooms.org/), I'm not able to separate the idea of personalized learning from the blended instruction, self-paced structures and mastery-based grading approach.

From that point of view, I've learned that personalized (or differentiated) learning for students consists on providing instruction to each student at his or her own level. AI supports this possibility, but it holds both the teacher and the students accountable: the teacher must realease the grades and evaluation in a timely manner to be able to really 🤬 the each studend and, in that way, personalize the instruction needed by each one; and the students must be responsable for their learning, which includes the cases of absenteeism, remembering that the pathway of learning must be done by the students themselves.

Using AI to support the decisions related to personalized learning will not only benefit the students, but also the teacher, because it will free-up the much needed time needed to help individual students and it will open up the possibilities for collaboration between the students and the teacher and the students with each other.

Personalized learning is an educational approach that aims to customize learning for each student’s strengths, needs, skills, and interests.Each student gets a learning plan that’s based on what they know and how they learn best.
The idea is that  the teacher doesn’t lead all students through the same lessons. Instead, the teacher guides each student on an individualized pace. What, when, where and how to learn is adapted to meet each student’s  skills, needs, and interests.
The best way, for each learner, is to deliver information in such a way that her/she is able to acquire  it easily.

This could be the type of material (video, text, or interactive games, for example), the time spent, the amount of material covered in each lesson, and the order in which new information is explained. This will vary for each learner, as everyone has different learning styles.

# data[].attributes.body
Since each person has its own specific personal profile and characteristics (psychological, mental, social, financial etc), the learning process seems to be strongly a personal matter. So, in order the teaching process to be efficient, productive and constructive, institutions and professionals in education have to take into account the variety and the peculiarity of its target group and each person's individually.

This personalization of teaching and learning, this differentiation in programs, strategies, methods, practices, approaches scheduling and support, ought to be based in the investigation of the distinct needs, interests, aspirations and capabilities of each student. In order this investigation to be successful, the older pedagogical “student-centered” direction must be transformed to an “each student-centered” direction.

The informational material for this transformation will surely come from the collection and the subsequent processing of students’ individual data. They must be numerous, updated, coming from different sources, both qualitative and quantitative, processed and interpreted in such a way that they will describe in details the idiosyncratic profile of the learner.

Then, each learner could design, follow, monitor and control a successful personalized learning route either by himself or by means of the professionals of education, activating face-to-face  and/or distant learning methods.

The term personalized learning, or personalization, refers to a diverse variety of educational programs, learning experiences, instructional approaches, and academic-support strategies that are intended to address the distinct learning needs, interests, aspirations, or cultural backgrounds of individual students. Personalized learning is generally seen as an alternative to so-called “one-size-fits-all” approaches to schooling in which teachers may, for example, provide all students in a given course with the same type of instruction, the same assignments, and the same assessments with little variation or modification from student to student. Personalized learning may also be called student-centered learning, since the general goal is to make individual learning needs the primary consideration in important educational and instructional decisions, rather than what might be preferred, more convenient, or logistically easier for teachers and schools.

The term personalized learning, or personalization, refers to a diverse variety of educational programs, learning experiences, instructional approaches, and academic-support strategies that are intended to address the distinct learning needs, interests, aspirations, or cultural backgrounds of individual students. Personalized learning is generally seen as an alternative to so-called "one-size-fits-all" approaches to schooling in which teachers may, for example, provide all students in a given course with the same type of instruction, the same assignments, and the same assessments with little variation or modification from student to student. Personalized learning may also be called student-centered learning , since the general goal is to make individual learning needs the primary consideration in important educational and instructional decisions, rather than what might be preferred, more convenient, or logistically easier for teachers and schools.

The term (and related synonyms) has become more widely used by online schools and companies selling online learning programs. It should be noted that "personalized learning," as it is typically designed and implemented in K-12 public schools, can differ significantly from the forms of "personalized learning" being offered and promoted by virtual schools and online learning programs. In some schools, however, personalized learning many take the form of " personalized learning blended learning,"or the practice of using both online and learning experiences when teaching students. When investigating or reporting on personalized learning, it is important to determine precisely how the term is being used in a specific context. For a related discussion on personalized learning and online schools, see the Debate section below.

Personalized learning is intended to facilitate the academic success of each student by first determining the learning needs, interests, and aspirations of individual students, and then providing learning experiences that are customized-to a greater or lesser extent-for each student. To accomplish this goal, schools, teachers, guidance counselors, and other educational specialists may employ a wide variety of educational methods, from intentionally cultivating strong and trusting student-adult relationships to modifying assignments and instructional strategies in the classroom to entirely redesigning the ways in which students are grouped and taught in a school.

Because personalized learning has such broad implications, and the term encompasses such a wide variety of potential programs and strategies, it may be difficult to determine precisely what the term is referring to when it is used without qualification, specific examples, or additional explanation.

The following representative examples will help illustrate the concept. Schools and educators might personalize learning for students by:

Reconfiguring the operational and educational structure of a large school so that students are organized into smaller groups and paired with a consistent team of teachers who get to know the students and their learning needs well. While this strategy takes a wide variety of forms from school to school, a few of the most common approaches are "smaller learning communities," , themed-based academies , or "schools-within-a-school"-an approach that involves the creation of distinct academic programs, or "schools," within the operational structure of larger school.

Eliminating the practice of grouping students into different academic "tracks" or tiered course levels based on their perceived ability or past academic performance-a practice called "heterogeneous grouping" or "mixed-ability grouping," in which students of various ability levels are enrolled in the same course or program. In these cases, as well as in other educational settings, teachers may employ a variety of personalized instructional and academic support strategies generally called differentiation , differentiated learning, or differentiated instruction.

Schools may create or offer students a variety of learning pathways -i.e., a wider and more diverse selection of learning experiences. Common examples include career-related internships that allow students to satisfy school graduation requirements or meet state-required learning standards ; dual-enrollment experiences that allow students to take courses at alternate institutions, such as colleges or universities, while also earning academic credit at their home school; or independent-study projects, which allow students to self-design learning experiences in collaboration with a teacher, mentor, or advisor.

Students may create and maintain personal learning plans , which describe their academic, collegiate, and career goals, while mapping out the educational decisions they need to make to achieve their goals, or portfolios , which are a cumulative record of a student's academic work and accomplishments. Teachers, advisors, and educational specialists may use these plans and portfolios to guide how they teach and support specific students.

Replacing more traditional homeroom periods or study halls with advisories -time in the school day for educators to meet with small groups of students and advise them on academic, social, and postsecondary-planning issues. Students may also be paired with advisors, adult mentors, or peer mentors who meet regularly with students over the course of several months, a year, or multiple years to help them acclimate to a school, navigate educational options, or plan for higher education and careers after graduation.

Using alternative educational approaches and instructional methods-such as authentic learning , blended learning , community-based learning , or project-based learning , to name just a few-that may give students more personal choice in their education and more opportunities pursue learning experiences that reflect their personal interests, career aspirations, or cultural heritage. Increasingly, a variety of digital and online learning options are being used to personalize learning for students.

Increasing the level of choice and personal responsibility students have in the instructional process. The concept of "student voice" refers to the values, opinions, beliefs, perspectives, and cultural backgrounds of individual students and groups of students in a school, and to instructional approaches and techniques that are based on student choices, interests, passions, and ambitions. As an alternative to more traditional forms of instruction in which teachers may make unilateral decisions with little or no input from students, introducing more student voice into the learning process in one way to personalize learning.

Debate

While personalized learning in public schools may become the object of debate, most debates tend to center on specific applications of personalized learning-such as the strategies described above-rather than on the general concept or pedagogical philosophy (which is so encompassing, multifaceted, and far-reaching that it would difficult to isolate specific arguments for or against it). That said, the idea of "personalized learning," in whatever manifestation, does have its ardent proponents and its equally ardent critics.

In some cases, criticism and debate about personalized learning may stem, at least in part, from a fundamental misunderstanding of the strategy. For example, the idea of "individualized instruction"-creating distinct courses of study and instructional strategies for every student-was popular for a brief of time in the 1970s until educators realized that it was impractical and unfeasible to develop unique academic programs for dozens of students in a class. Personalization, personalized learning, and personalized instruction -the practice of varying instructional techniques in a classroom to effectively teach as many students as possible-is not synonymous with individualized instruction as it was defined in the 1970s. The conflation of related but distinct terms and strategies such "differentiated instruction," "personalized instruction," and "individualized instruction" has likely contributed to ongoing confusion and debates about personalized learning, particularly given that these distinct terms are commonly used interchangeably.

It should also be noted that online schools and educational programs promoting "personalized learning" have also become the object of criticism, debate, and controversy. Many for-profit virtual schools and online collegiate degree programs, for example, have been accused of offering low-quality educational experiences to students, exploiting students or public programs, and using the popularity of concepts such as "personalized learning" to promote programs of dubious educational value.

Personalized learning refers to educational strategies that address the distinct learning needs, interests, aspirations, or cultural backgrounds of students

Personalized learning is an educational approach that aims to customize learning for

each student’s strengths, needs, skills, and interests.  Personalized learning can also give students the chance to build self-advocacy skills. It encourages them to speak up about what interests them. It also allows them to be equal partners in their learning experience. This process helps students take ownership of their learning. Teachers are only guides through learning on the way to the goal.

The implementation of such a program in schools does not lead to a change in academic standards, but only to different methods and speeds of learning that may vary from student to student. But each student must reach a certain level in each subject by the end of the school year.

When it comes to personalized learning, teacher's role becomes that of a tutor or that of an enabler. The teacher guides students through knowledge, helping them with materials and guidance in order to accomplish a certain task. This way, it is easier for the teacher to observe the students' needs and collect data for the "unpersonalized" lessons. It is a helpful way of learning because students have the freedom to solve certain tasks making their own decisions. Critical thinking and problem-solving skills are better developed this way.

Despite the state-sanctioned push into for-profit education and a growing commitment of private money, it is important to note that personalized learning remains a largely unproven approach to teaching. Research has not shown that expensive technology helps improve learning. Nevertheless, donors are rushing in, emphasizing technology products over experienced, highly skilled educators.
The unproven “personalized learning” movement is growing.

I believe that personalized learning is great for highly motivated students. First of all, it requires solid IT equipment, which our students often do not have. A survey at our school showed that more than 70% of students used cell phones for classes during the COVID lockdown. I had to repeat all the lessons covered via video conferencing when we returned to classes. The students remembered almost nothing. Very frustrating. This was great for the IT sector, which sold equipment and software, but it did not benefit the students. Today, they offer obvious resistance when we need to do something online.

Personalized learning that emphasizes technology and online instruction above hands-on educators is expanding with state support. In December 2016, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education chose the LearnLaunch Institute to lead a public-private initiative, Massachusetts Personalized Learning EdTech Consortium, or MAPLE.

In a personalized learning environment, teachers are no longer the custodians of knowledge who base instruction on a standard one-level curriculum. Instead, the teacher's role becomes managing the resources and supports students need, when they need them, to master knowledge. In personalized learning classrooms, teachers adjust instruction daily—sometimes more frequently—to meet individual needs rather than creating complex lesson plans days in advance.
