I needed to see the application of what i was working towards to feel like it was important to me]]> 2018-09-10 14:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/lincspring/d1vdcaagchb2/wish/279419275 My journey in personalized learning https://padlet.com/lincspring/d1vdcaagchb2/wish/279419335 I always studied what was interesting to me. In college I learned best when i worked in a lab doing hands on research. As an adult I learn best and am most engaged when i am able to learn on my own and seek out my own resources.
