Reclaiming Personalized Learning
Reclaiming Personalized Learning
A Pedagogy for Restoring Equity and Humanity in Our Classrooms
Paul Emerich France
Where exactly did personalized learning go so wrong?
For teacher and consultant Paul France, at first technology-powered personalized learning seemed like a panacea. But after three years spent at a personalized learning start-up and network of microschools, he soon realized that such corporate-driven individualized learning initiatives do more harm than good, especially among our most vulnerable students. The far-superior alternative? A human-centered pedagogy that prioritizes children over technology.
First, let's be clear: Reclaiming Personalized Learning is not yet-another ed tech book. Instead it's a user's guide to restoring equity and humanity to our classrooms and schools through personalization. One part polemical, eleven parts practical, the book describes how to:
Shape whole-class instruction, leverage small-group interactions, and nurture a student's inner-dialogue
Cultivate awareness within and among students, and build autonomy and authority
Design curriculum with a flexible frame and where exactly the standards fit
Humanize assessment and instruction, including the place of responsive teaching
Create a sense of belonging, humanize technology integration, and effect socially just teaching and learning--all central issues in equity
The truth is this: there's no one framework, there's no one tool that makes learning personalized-what personalized learning companies with a vested interest in profits might tempt you to believe. It's people who personalize learning, and people not technology must be at the center of education. The time is now for all of us teachers to reclaim personalized learning, and this all-important book is our very best resource for getting started.
