A1: Personalized learning should consist of 4 key elements that promote intrinsic motivation for students: autonomy, competence (growth mindset), relatedness, and relevance of content and relationships in the classroom. #1stchat

A1: Personalized learning is adapting lesson or providing students with additional ways of learning that best suit their learning need that helps them be the most successful. Most techniques within personalized learning are created for an individual student. #1stchat
A1: Personalized learning should be when the students interests and best ways of learning are thought of and put into the lessons so the students can best learn the material. #1stchat
A1- personalized learning is different for each student. It is individualized. Differentiated instruction is where we place students into groups. Very different but both can be effective! #1stchat
I would say that personalized learning is similar to differentiation. I would think that personalized instruction focuses on the student as a who, and not just his or her academic needs. #1stchat
A1: Personalized learning is a little different than differentiated instruction but along the same basis. Personalized deals w/ students interest, differentiated deals w/their skills #1stchat
A2: Students should have a voice AND a choice in the way that they learn because students are going to know themselves best. An example of this could be a student choosing to read a book digitally verses reading a paperback book. #1stchat
A2: When students have the ability to share their voice and their interests, they become more engaged and have some ownership of their learning. #1stchat#empowerstudents
A2- students are a stalkholder in their education and therefore need to have a voice! As teachers we need to allow them the opportunity to use it and value it. #1stchat
A2: we need to teach all the choices so Ss are comfortable when allowed choice. Allowing voice & choice is when true learning and a love for Lear will happen. #1stchat
I didn't think it would work due to the fact that our students have an aggressive attitude towards school . However, it has made students take ownership over their actions and thoughts. They have even been helping peers change from fixed to growth. #1stchat#growthmindset

A2: Voice and choice are important for learners by giving them a since of power, will help them to be more involved in the classroom since they had a choice, and will hold and increase their interest in learning #1stchat
A1: Personalized learning is developing a learning strategy for specific students. Itβs about understanding specific students needs and wants!#1stchat
A2: Having the ability to listen to your students can have an incredible impact. Students will trust you and strive to have a better relationship with you, which encourages learning! #1stchat
A3: I don't have my own classroom yet, but I've thought about implementing tech and non-tech options for learning in the classroom that fits each students' needs. #1stchat
A3: I personally do not have my own classroom since I am a per-service teacher but I agree with personalized learning. Ss should have a say in the best way for them to learn! #1stchat
A3- being a cyber school teacher I speak with my students every 3 weeks. That phone call is where I get to know their interests, discuss them, share them, and personalize their learning in all subject areas. I have to make an effort to help students value their education #1stchat
A3: I am not a teacher yet, but I do plan on implementing personalized learning in my future classroom because it is important for my students to help decide what they learn #1stchat
A3 I focus on teaching my students their learning goals and why they are learning the skills. Soon I will start focusing on how they show their learning. #1stchat
I donβt currently have my own classroom yet, but I feel that personalized learning is incredibly important. I will definitely be implementing it in the classroom in as many ways as possible! #1stchat
This is what I do with writer's workshop -- student goals (trying to get it to the point that they identify their next steps) #1stchat and like you said -- know when they've demonstrated progresses
A3 I focus on teaching my students their learning goals and why they are learning the skills. Soon I will start focusing on how they show their learning. #1stchat
When I'm a teacher, I plan to be very present in the classroom. To be there to talk to each of my students and prioritize how they best learn individually #1stchat
A3: relationships help to know what drives each student and makes it easier to personalize learning. As they become more independent I develop more opportunities for Ss to help design their learning, love genius hour projects. #1stchat

A3: Although I donβt yet have my own classroom, I can see myself using online educational games that will track each Ss progress and allow them to go at their own pace #1stchat
A3 Getting to know students' passion and bring them into instructions. Loved Identity Day to learn more about my students. https://t.co/IwUHpK8QTa#1stchat
A4: Ts need to establish strong behavior expectations for this kind of learning to work. When Ss have freedom in the way that they learn, that could translate to thinking they have freedom in the way that they behave in the classroom. #1stchat
A4: the environment needs to be one of respect between students and between students and the teacher so they can feel free to explore the content #1stchat
A4: An environment where Ss share thinking and feel safe. Where the T makes a point to know them in many layers. An environment where the T feels able to make choices and decisions for their Ss benefit. #1stchat
A4: A safe and trusting environment that allows students to feel secure and free to express themselves w/o judgement from others. Creating relationships with students also helps develop and sustain personalized learning #1stchat
A4: A welcoming environment is needed to sustain personalized learning. When students feel safe, it can be easier for the educator to develop strategies for specific students! #1stchat
A4 Teachers have to have clear learning goals and guide students with their interests in mind. It's not free for all. Teacher sustain control at all times. #1stchat

Right?? Since we get a new group of students every year, we have to keep changing what we do... never ending! Love hearing Ts saying "This year's group loves to..." #1stchat
A4 I give a ton of leadership responsibilities to my students. They are the ones running meetings, helping others line up, helping settling in for a carpet time, etc. #1stchat
A5: I do not have my own classroom yet but providing a variety of options for given content will help students learn what tools are going to work best for them. #1stchat
A5: My tip is reflect often. Look at what you do, think about how you can make small changes to change your culture. Look at others, find models you want to try. Ask, question and reflect. #1stchat

A5 My tip is to share responsibilities with students! Don't try doing everything on your own! First graders are more than capable to think, help and teach others! #1stchat
A5 Again, really watch and listen to your students. Give them a chance to be themselves so you can really get to know them as people first, learners second. #1stchat
Glad this was shared tonight, especially considering how many pre-service teachers we have -- shared responsibilities make for a great way to build classroom community! #1stchat

LOL -- ME too! They're working on the iOS app. The web app was to be released, but then Puerto Rico had a hurricane...and that's where they are based #1stchat@TheGROApp
