Pam Lowe shares her story about her 4 year-old niece and her insight into personalized learning:
 
"Basically at the wise old age of four, the question my niece was asking me that currently many educators and schools are struggling to comprehend was,

“Why can’t learning be personalized?”

When a child can recognize the need for personalized learning, why can’t our education system? My niece is not viewing personalized learning as a buzzword or a fad. She is viewing personalized learning as a right that is due her as a learner." - See more at: http://www.personalizelearning.com/#sthash.yHJTVyEu.dpuf

Interesting, in other ways this could also be seen as framing learning as a constant performance of assessment. Where do you draw the line ?

We are pleased to announce our new and updated Stages of Personalized Learning Environments (PLE) version 4. You are probably wondering why we updated it again. While writing our next book, How to Personalize Learning to be published Fall 2016, we realized that we had to make changes to the Stages of PLE. It's been two years to the day since we created version 3 and so much has happened since the last version. - See more at: http://www.personalizelearning.com/2016/02/new-version-stages-of-personalized.html#sthash.7ZijOBPJ.dpuf

What Personalized Learning Really Means For Modern Teachers - Edudemic

It’s Not All About Technology

"Many people think that Personalized Learning is all about technology. It is not, although technology makes it more accessible in over-crowded classrooms. If an individual student has Internet access, that student can work independently while the teacher facilitates an in-depth discussion with a small group at another skill level. Technology empowers the teacher to keep a larger number of students at different levels moving forward simultaneously.

 

"Personalized Learning is also about improving the ability to assess student’s skills or growth in real time, rather than at the end of a unit or semester when it could be too late to redirect. Again, technology helps, but it is more about changing the mindsets of teachers, parents and students about how skills are measured and when. In addition, that ongoing assessment enables teachers and parents to better communicate about a child’s needs."
