Future Ready Schools--Personalized Learning

Our district has committed resources to explore the Future Ready Framework.  Future Ready is a framework for instruction that involves integrating technology and developing strategies for personalized learning that may or may not include technology.

On February 5th, the district is designing a day of professional learning around the concept of personalized learning.  Personalized learning is the key component to the Future Ready Framework.  Personalized learning is not a new concept, but one to be reimagined by educators in our 21st-century learning environment.  Read more about the framework here.

Questions To Consider:

1.  What does personalized learning look like in your classroom?  Do all your students learn the same?
2.  Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook fame) speaks about personalized learning.  Here is a short video clip of him speaking about personalized learning.  "Being able to learn in a way that is the most beneficial to them is important."  How does that look for your room?  What does that mean to you?
3.  Personalized learning and differentiation are similar but have differences.  Mentally note, or create a list, of ways you differentiate in your classroom.  How does that help personalize instruction?
