What makes for good technology-enabled personalized learning?

This article is interesting but really shouldn't be anything new for us.

Personal Learning Guide

Here are the needed ingredients to make learning work:


  1. The right usage of data - continual evaluation of how students are doing, what their needs are and what do they prefer? Many students, for example, do not like online textbooks.
  2. Content and curriculum - This, of course, is the base for any class.
  3. Research and development - Stay up on what is working in education and what is not. 
  4. Human capacity - What can students handle as far as technology and when is it better not to use it?
  5. Technology architecture - This, of course, must be in place for everything else to work.
This report was presented by North Carolina State University's' Friday Institute for Educational Innovation. This group does some awesome MOOCs!
