The Handbook of Personalized Learning offers a theoretically grounded conceptualization for the development and implementation of personalizing learning. This comprehensive volume addresses personalized learning’s roots in educational, cognitive, and social psychological studies of learning as well as in practice. Positioned to shape the future of personalized learning, this handbook documents past innovations achieved in educational technology research and development; considers how advancements in learning analytics and machine learning have influenced policy and implementation; and showcases current and future applications of personalized learning in diverse K-12 classrooms, higher education and informal educational settings. The book’s varied, rigorous contributions are informed by an overarching model of personalized learning that centers the assets individuals bring to learning opportunities (including their prior knowledge, interests, self-beliefs, autonomy and identity) and whose responsive designs build on those assets to improve learning and attainment. Researchers, developers, teaching faculty, and graduate students across educational psychology, educational technology, the learning sciences, learning analytics, human-computer interaction, and beyond will come away with substantive foundations and cutting-edge exemplars of the ways in which designs can be personalized to promote learners’ experiences in educational settings.Chapter 13 and Chapter 25 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

Frameworks for Integrated Project-Based Instruction in STEM Disciplines presents an original approach to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) centric project based instruction. We approach project based instruction from an engineering design philosophy and the accountability highlighted in a standards-based environment. We emphasize a backward design that is initiated by well-defined outcomes tied to local, state, or national standards that provide teachers with a framework guiding students' design, solving, or completion of ill-defined tasks. In project-based STEM classrooms students investigate, utilize technological tools, construct artifacts, participate in debates, collaborate, and make products to demonstrate what they have learned.Features include deep coverage of four topics in PBI: scaffolding, student-driven inquiry, driving questions, and development of lessons based on national and state standards. This focus will ensure a deep understanding by the reader of project-based instruction, which will allow the reader to create strong and meaningful lesson experiences for their students. An emphasis on student-driven inquiry will be discussed, including the importance of giving students the cognitive tools, such as statistical analysis tools, they need to research and inquire about the lesson topic. A breakdown of what a successful driving question includes will be explained, and examples given. The book will include strategies for starting the lesson process with ending goals in mind by creating driving questions and breaking down state and national standards. This book is strongly rooted in research in the learning sciences about project-based instruction, but will also be designed to be practically useful to teachers and teacher educators and researchers by bridging research and practice.
