@LO_Peck663 I totally agree with you, personalized learning and opportunities to check in with such student would be AMAZING, but time is a huge barrier, both on a planning point and implementing in the classroom with 30+ students in 55 minutes. #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

@Michelle_Gram1 Personalized learning is so important in a special ed setting. Students need to be interested in the subject matter to be engaged and motivated. Allowing them opportunities to present their learning allows them to be successful. #TFE620W19 #TFE620F19

@amanda_piper12 I agree, personalized learning works great w/math, there are so many levels of a problem that teachers can assign for struggling or advanced learners. Stations, and getting a chance to work individually with a teacher is best for checking for understanding. #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

Personalized learning allows students to be engaged, successful, and check for understanding. Allowing students to work at their own pace, can reduce anxiety and stress of trying to keep up with others in the classroom. #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Barriers of personalized learning are that there are many students who are not productive unless the teacher is working with them, or do not develop confidence in a skill without hearing class discussions and getting their questions answered right away #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Benefits of personalized learning are that I am able to work individually with students to check for understanding and students are able to work at their own pace or on skills that are at their own personal grade level to feel success. #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

My school is 1:1 so there are many opportunities that we take advantage of for personalized learning through stations, I-ready, Mathia, Quizizz, and many more. Students work at their own pace through a tutorial or assignment while I work with other students #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Personalized learning also happens in my classroom through @carnegielearn Mathia program, where students all work on the same interactive lessons and tutorials, aligned to class concepts taught, but at their own pace on their Chromebooks. #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Personalized learning happens in my classroom through @ReadyMath i-ready program. After students take their diagnostic test, they are placed on an individual pathway aligned to their current grade level performance. #TFE620F19 #TFE620W19

@JasonWa83675051 @JasonWa83675051 I agree it is important to make sure we are adding tech for the right purpose and not to just check it off the list. If we are not invested in something, our students will read us and not be engaged either. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

@amanda_piper12 @amanda_piper12 I agree, it’s so important to review before assigning, similar to making an answer key for the test before giving to find any possible typos or identify possible misconceptions. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

@grace_green128 @grace_green128 unfortunately there is no ‘one size fits all’ resource so I agree, we have to ask ourselves if a resource is limiting students from success (such as timed responses) we don’t want to hold kids back by using a device rather than paper. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

It is important to make sure we are using technology for the right purpose, at the right time in class, not too often or too sparingly, finding that fine line can be tough, but is key to enhance engagement without being a distraction. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Previewing the assessment, tutorial, assignment, activity, etc. prior to assigning it to students is important so we are well versed in what we expect of our students, should confusion arise. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Teachers need to consider student and teacher access to technology, WiFi access at school and home, timeliness of feedback to activity or assessment done online, and how engaging or distracting the lesson may be. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

I have found it challenging to incorporate video tutorials in the classroom because students tend to open a separate tab and listen to music rather than the lesson. #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

My greatest success with technology is through adaptive pathways that are aligned to the individuals ability through @ReadyMath competitive reviews through @quizizz and exit tickets through @googledocs #TFE620W19

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

Integrating technology can be done through reviews, exit tickets, adaptive pathways, video tutorials, manipulatives, assessments, etc. my school is 1:1 so I have had success and challenges implementing tech for all these. #TFE620W19

@amanda_piper12 @edpuzzle Hi @amanda_piper12 thanks for sharing @edpuzzle this is a new resource for me and I am hoping to find some videos that can be used in my math class too. Glad to heard you’ve found it to be a successful resource!

[Jackie @its_jackiec]

@LO_Peck663 @Flipgrid @LO_Peck663 thanks for sharing @Flipgrid I have not heard of before, but am looking forward to incorporating it into my classroom with my students and getting them more engaged! #tfe600
