You remember school, right? It’s that place where rows of fatigued students face a board and get told by the teacher that they should be interested in 馴悍記.

Well, not all students are fans of Shakespeare. In fact, in all honesty, the majority of your students aren’t fans of the majority of what you teach.

雖然您可以提高課堂參與度, you can’t force interest.

可悲的事實是,在他們當前的學習環境中,您的許多學生永遠不會在任何學校課程中找到他們的熱情。

但是如果你能教他們什麼 他們 想學?

What if you could uncover those passions and help students develop the skills they needed to exceed in them?

這就是背後的想法 個人學習.

什麼是個性化學習?

參加個性化學習課程的學生

As the name suggests, individualised learning (or ‘individualised instruction’) is all about the 個人.

It’s not about your class, groups of students or even you – it’s about taking each student as a single person, rather than part of a collective, and ensuring they’re learning how they want to learn.

個性化學習是一種 創新的教學方法 每個學生都通過專門為他們設計的課程取得進步。 在整個課程中,他們與同學坐在一起,但大部分時間都是獨自完成當天的任務。

Each lesson, as they advance through those various tasks and their personalised curriculum each lesson, the teacher doesn’t teach, but offers personalised guidance for each student when they need it.

個性化學習在課堂上的表現如何?

If you’ve not seen individualised learning in action yet, you probably think it’s absolute chaos.

Maybe you’re picturing teachers running around the classroom trying to help 30 students on 30 different topics, students playing up while teacher’s got their hands busy.

但現實情況是,個性化學習往往看起來 不同. There’s no cookie-cutter format.

以美國 Quitman Street School 為例 筆記本電腦上的個人任務。

而在世界的另一端,澳大利亞的 Templestowe College 允許學生 創建自己的課程.

這導致一名 7 年級的男孩在 12 年級的物理課上表現出色,幾名學生從事農場管理,一個學生經營的咖啡俱樂部和一名學生在一個同名的項目中創造了一個特斯拉線圈 極客研究 class. (Check out the principal’s 迷人的 TedTalk 在整個程序中)。

So, as long as you’re putting emphasis on the 個人,那個人正在從個性化學習中受益。

個性化學習課堂的 4 個步驟

As every program of individualised learning looks different, there’s no 為前線醫護人員打氣,送上由衷的敬意。讓你在送禮的同時,也為香港盡一分力。 在課堂上實施它的方法。

此處的步驟是關於如何規劃多個個人學習體驗(佔此方法工作的 80%)以及如何在課堂上管理所有這些的一般建議。

#1 – Create a Learner Profile

The learner profile is the foundation of a student’s personalised curriculum.

It’s basically a collection of all the student’s hopes and dreams, as well as more tangible stuff like…

  • 愛好和興趣
  • 長處和短處
  • 首選學習方法
  • 該主題的先驗知識
  • 阻礙他們學習的障礙
  • 他們吸收和保留新信息的速度。

你可以通過一個 直接對話 與學生,一個 調查 test. 如果你想鼓勵更多的樂趣和創造力,你也可以讓你的學生創造他們自己的 簡報,甚至是他們自己的 電影 為全班分享這些信息。

#2 – Set Individual Goals

Once you’ve got this information, you and your student can work on setting their goals.

You will both regularly check on the students’ progress towards these goals throughout the course, with the student ultimately deciding how that progress will be checked.

您可以向您的學生建議一些不同的框架,以幫助他們設定目標:

確保定期進行評估,並向學生公開他們在實現最終目標方面的進展。

#3 – Create Self-Run Activities for each Lesson

老師跪在學生旁邊幫助他進行個人學習

When you’re planning an individualised learning lesson, you’re actually planning several that will be easy enough for each student to manage largely on their own.

This is the most labour-intensive part of the individual learning method, and something you’ll have to repeat for every lesson.

以下是一些節省時間的提示:

  1. 找到你班上的一些學生可以做的活動 同時. Remember that not every individualised learning plan will be 100% unique; there’s always going to be some crossover for how and what to learn between multiple students.
  2. 創建 播放列表 of activities that fit certain learning needs. Each activity in the playlist awards a number of points when it’s completed; it’s the student’s job to proceed through their designated playlist and earn a certain total of points before the end of the lesson. You can then reuse and reshuffle these playlists for other classes.
  3. 你可以先關注 一項個性化的學習活動 每個學生每節課,並以傳統方式教授剩餘的課程。 通過這種方式,您只需花費最少的精力就可以測試學生對個人學習的反應。
  4. 完成一個 集體活動, 像一個 團隊測驗. This helps bring the whole class back together for a bit of shared fun and a quick assessment on what they’ve just learned.

#4 – Check progress

In the early stages of your individualised teaching journey, you should check your students’ progress as frequently as possible.

您希望確保您的課程步入正軌,並且學生確實在新方法中發現了價值。

請記住,該方法的一部分是讓學生選擇如何評估他們,這可以是筆試、課程作業、同行評審、測驗,甚至是某種形式的表演。

Settle on a marking system beforehand so students know how they will be judged. Once they’re done, let them know how close or far from their self-appointed goal they are.

個性化學習的利弊

優點

增加參與度。 Naturally, having students learn with personally optimal conditions is a great way to ensure they’re getting the most out of their learning. They don’t have to compromise; they can learn what they want how they want at a pace they want

所有權自由。 讓學生參與他們自己的課程,讓他們對自己的學習有一種強烈的主人翁感。 控制自己的教育並引導其走上正確道路的自由從根本上激勵著學生。

靈活性。 沒有啦 為前線醫護人員打氣,送上由衷的敬意。讓你在送禮的同時,也為香港盡一分力。 way that individualised learning has to be. If you don’t have the capacity for creating and executing individualised curricula for your whole class, you can just arrange a few student-centred activities. You might be surprised how engaged they get in the task.

增加獨立性。 自我分析是一項很難教授的技能,但個性化課堂會隨著時間的推移培養這種技能。 最終,您的學生將能夠管理自己、分析自己並確定更快學習的最佳方法。

缺點

There’s always a limit to what can be personalised. Sure, you can personalise learning as much as possible, but if you’re a maths teacher with a standard nationwide maths exam at the end of the year, you need to teach the stuff that’s going to help them pass. Also, what if a few students just simply don’t like maths? Personalisation can help but it’s not going to change the nature of a subject some students find inherently dull.

它會耗盡你的時間。 您已經沒有多少空閒時間來享受生活,但如果您訂閱個人學習,您可能不得不花費大部分空閒時間為每個學生創建單獨的日常課程。 雖然結果是,當學生通過自己的學習取得進步時,您可能會在課程中有更多時間來計劃未來的課程。

這對學生來說可能是孤獨的。 在個性化學習的課堂上,學生大多是自己完成自己的課程,與老師的接觸很少,與同學的接觸更少,每個人都在做自己的工作。 這可能會非常無聊並助長學習中的孤獨感,這對學習動力來說可能是災難性的。

開始個性化學習

有興趣嘗試個性化指導嗎?

Remember that you don’t have to dive full into the model right from the start. You can always test the water with your students over just one lesson.

這樣做的方法如下:

  1. Before the lesson, send a quick survey for all students to list one goal (this doesn’t have to be too specific) and one preferred method of learning.
  2. 創建一些學生應該能夠在很大程度上自己完成的活動播放列表。
  3. 根據他們喜歡的學習方法,將這些播放列表分配給班上的每個學生。
  4. 在課堂結束時主持一個快速測驗或其他類型的作業,看看每個人的表現如何。
  5. 讓學生填寫一份關於他們的迷你個性化學習體驗的快速調查!
