Personalized Learning Plans

"Personalized learning plans are developed in a way that identifies the types of skills students need to pursue their academic and career interests and the steps required to build those skills, which may be attained through traditional educational pathways or through other innovative delivery mechanisms."  (Personalized Learning Plans Brief, USDE, 2017)

Personalized Learning Plans: 

• "Allows students to think through and have a say in their educational process.

• Motivates students to take responsiblity for their learning.

• Motivates students to invest their time and energy in the process.

• Removes the burden of having one definition of success for all students.

• Bases success upon the individually met goals of each student." (Classcraft Blog, 2019)

• Collaborates with the student and parent/guardian, to create and adjust each student's learning pathway. 

• Provides each student with a list of learning standards that are appropriate for their skill level. 

• Reviews progress to ensure that the student is working in agreement with their PLP. 

• Chooses learning standards of interest or standards that they do not know, from the list of learning standards provided by the teacher for their skill level. 

• Completes coursework and tracks progress within the PLP and shares the results with their teacher.
