Education Week: Schools Use Digital Tools to Customize Education - 0 views

  • In today’s digital marketplace, students of all ages can create experiences tailored just for them. When a teenager searches for movies to watch, an online film site can provide suggestions based on past viewing history. Music lovers can create personalized playlists for everything from a workout in the gym to a study session. And when children play video games, they can choose a variety paths—based on their interests and skill levels—toward slaying a dragon or defeating an enemy. Then many of these same students walk into their classrooms and sit at their desks to absorb one-size-fits-all lessons or, if they’re lucky, instruction aimed at the high-, mid-, or low-level learner. And in many cases, there is little, if any, technology integrated into those lessons.

      I totally agree that we're fighting a losing battle if we don't allow children to use technology in schools to complete their assignments.

      This references frequent physical breaks which we do through mt PLC work. VERY helpful for some!
