  Allowing quiet time for students to reflect is important, but I have found that classroom noise (more often than not) is a product of student discussion and processing information together. Silent learning environments aren't a reality nor should they be.

When done right, it meets several of the ISTE Standards for Students and Teachers while leading to a more rigorous, challenging, engaging and thought-provoking curriculum.

  This statement helps to clarify that personalized learning is so much more than just giving students access to technology. When done purposefully by well-informed teachers, personalized learning can help maintain high expectations for students.

The social media platform that supports PLEs creates a perfect space for peer collaboration and sharing information.

  This is an area I would like to do some practice with my students in. Collaboration plays a big role in my classroom but we haven't done much with online peer collaboration aside from Google Docs. I would be interested to see some examples of how other teachers incorporate collaboration with online resources.

  Certain elements of my school allow for such wishful thinking (shorter Flex classes that aren't necessarily tied to a standard) but it is difficult to think about designing a course based on standards/school expectations this way.
