  • it requires “unlearning” many of the lessons of traditional teacher-preparation programs.

      After many years of teaching and lots of curriculum programs, this is a nice reminder to allow students to discover new learning!
  • graphic organizers known as Thinking Maps,

      I think graphic organizers are important to use for students so that they can see examples of how to organize the information, as well as a "picture" of their learning to remember.
  • Marcon tracked children from preschool through the third and fourth grades and found that those with “overly academic” preschool experiences struggled in their later elementary years when they were expected to “think more independently and take on greater responsibility for their own learning process.”

      I can completely see how not allowing students time to "play" is taking away social skills, language development, critical thinking, and self monitoring skills.

  • think hard about how having them could empower you to be a better teacher and provide your students with richer educational experiences.

      No one program or teaching approach fits all students. It is important to find a balance in type of educational experiences for students.
  • Adaptive learning technology tracks what and how each student is doing so that teachers can keep up with each student’s progress.

      Even though adaptive learning programs provides data on each student's progress, it still takes teacher time to analyze data. Will teachers take time to do this? Or are they busy enough keeping up doing other personalization plans? Just a thought....
  • more time focused on one-to-one student engagement and self-paced guidance through a curriculum.

  • adaptive learning models as one approach

      I agree that adaptive learning is not meant to take the place of a teacher, but rather another way to reteach and practice skills taught.

  • the best thing we can do for kids is empower them to make regular, important, thoughtful decisions about their own learning

      So many students have difficulty with problem solving and decsion making on their own...could traditional teaching be part of the cause?
  • But if the point is to help kids understand ideas from the inside out and answer their own questions about the world, then what they’re doing is already personal (and varied). It doesn’t have to be artificially personalized.

  • Personalization is an even more disturbing example of this phenomenon because the word has come to be equated with technology

      Using technology can personalize instruction, but students also require personal instruction, such as discussion with a peer about a book or collaborating with a team about a science experiment
  • Personal learning tends to nourish kids’ curiosity and deepen their enthusiasm. “Personalized” or “customized” learning – not so much.

      This statement really helped me to see the difference between personalized and personal. Personalized is more of the skill being taught while personal is the connection that's made
