      This would be cool to have them create their own tests, and then when they finish they can see if they achieved everything they set out to do.
  • Inquiry-based instruction, a teaching technique rooted in questioning — both students’ questions about the material under investigation and the interrogation of students by teachers to elicit understanding

      Studies have proven that children learn better by doing and not just sitting in a desk all day.
  • Students who miss time to play miss opportunities to let their minds soar and connect the dots between what they do at their desks and what surrounds them in the world

      This is why I give my students an hour to an hour and a half to play each day. I know they are learning valuable lessons!

      Parents are probably the best way to get to know the students.

  • The point is that these technologies can open up a world of new possibilities.

      I feel like this article doesn't emphasize that this is just a computer system and the students still need to have human contact as well.
  • Adaptive learning products track how each student is doing and provide teachers with class reports. Teachers won’t have to work individually with students for hours to assess which skills each student needs help with, because they’ll have on-demand data aggregating that information.

      This sound like it would greatly help teachers an not cause to them to have extra work.
  • technology does not necessarily replicate face-to-face learning (as with online learning), but rather, drives learning from start to finish by incorporating the right mix of online and face-to-face instruction where suitable.

      I agree with this statement as what I wrote in the first article.

  • "The technology is now cheap enough and powerful enough for this kind of approach to be applied effectively and widely,"

      The cheaper it is more schools will be able to use this system.

      I remember in 4th grade when my teacher got mad at me when I couldn't finish my math paper "on time." It would have been so much easier to go at my own pace!
  • She cautions educators who may be excited about the progressive educational implications for “personalized learning” to make sure everyone they work with is on the same page about what that phrase means.

      In reading these articles there does seem to be a lot of individual definitions of "personalization." However on the flip side it is personalized, so everyone is going to have their own definition.
  • Personalization promises better student achievement and, I believe, a more effective delivery method than any one teacher with 25 or 30 students in a classroom can compete with. It’s a no-brainer, right?

      With a class that size its hard to see any growth of any student with traditional methods. Personalization would help the teacher keep tack of each child's progress

  • The main objective is just to raise test scores

      Then we need to rethink the way we test!
