Personalised Learning

Hmm, been a while since I put anything in this space. So it is a whimsical Sunday morning with three kids glued to their YouTube devices. Each of my boys are watching a short video of their choice and their particular interest. What ever happened to Hey Hey It’s Saturday and all sitting around the TV together?

I wonder if our classrooms reflect this. A single channel of content – directed at a consumer whose only choices are to engage with the mass offering or tune out.

The idea of personalised learning lies very close with differentiation. This will be a bit of an inquiry for me to see where this might work in my current context.

At this point, the most authentic application seems to be around flipped learning sessions and fluid grouping for targeted instruction.
