It\u2019s challenging to create a single definition of personalised learning experiences when the very essence of the concept lies in its unique expressions. Like every family\u2019s favourite recipe, a personalised learning experience for one student, educator or school may be entirely different for another.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Department of Education defines personalised learning as \u201can experience where the pace of learning and instructional approach are optimized for the needs of each student.\u201d Whereas today, many educators might think of a common instructional approach and common set of content to meet learning objectives, in personalised learning environments those elements may vary in order to be meaningful to students\u2019 areas of interest.<\/p>\n

Just as no two personalised learning experiences are the same, the adoption of personalised learning approaches will differ from one school — even one classroom — to the next, as the culture, context and community of the school influence its execution.<\/p>\n

However, there are three characteristics that all personalised learning experiences share.<\/p>\n

Student-Led
\n<\/strong>The primary hallmark of a personalised learning experience is a different level of focus on the student, one that considers how their needs, goals and interests are discovered and enabled.<\/p>\n

It means ensuring students have agency in their choices, and that they are the drivers in the learning process, not the educator. This may shift traditional relationships between students and teachers to be more collaborative.<\/p>\n

Character + Community Development
\n<\/strong>Personalised learning experiences also focus on building character development and community engagement.<\/p>\n

Developing skills like empathy and curiosity, as well as interacting with peers within the school community and the larger surrounding community, can better prepare students for a successful future.<\/p>\n

Dynamic Use of Resources
\n<\/strong>Additionally, creating personalised learning experiences means reconsidering how schools, educators, and students plan and use their time, space and technology more as resources than structures.<\/p>\n

Through diverse work spaces, more flexible blocks of time and technology resources, students can choose where and how to best use their time to complete tasks and achieve their learning objectives.<\/p>\n
