Personalized Learning
- Personalized learning is a method of education that tailors learning to each individual’s strengths, needs, and interests. It enables student choice in what, how, where and when they learn.
- The Winnetka Plan from 1919 focused on the 'whole child' and their physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development.
- The Dalton Plan from 1920 promoted balance between individual needs and community needs, allowing students to manage their own learning time and viewing teachers as resources rather than lecturers.
- Montessori education, first implemented in Europe during a similar period, provided students with a choice of learning activities and freedom of movement within the classroom.
- Victor Garcia Hoz coined the term "personalization" in 1970, defining it as the learner's journey toward developing freedom of choice and emphasizing that the learner should control their life experiences.
- Deliberate practice and spacing between practice sessions are key factors in facilitating effective learning.
- Personalized learning promotes the creation of personalized pathways for learners.
- Engaging technology tools can support students’ learning, such as collaborative projects in cloud-based conferencing tools, simulations, and online learning platforms offering 24/7 access and asynchronous learning opportunities.
