Learning in a personal way

 I read the article Preparing Students to Learn Without Us which discusses new methods of learning for enjoyment, while also covering the school curriculum. I think that this is a great innovative idea! I like the author's differentiation between personalized and personal. Personal learning sounds amazing because it is "self-directed and self-selected according to the learner's own needs, preferences, and learning arrangements." I was surprised to find out that so few schools actually use this because it is so easily accessible. I hope to use the blog and social bookmarking in order to help me with my AP Biology and Honors Precalculus homework because I find those classes challenging. I can also use this new connected learning to explore my favorite part of Media/ Film Production-- acting!!!
