How can a teacher personalize the quality of coaching and tutoring?
Students differ in many ways: their interests, how loud or quiet they prefer the learning environment, how much motivational support they need, whether they are more comfortable with abstract or concrete thinking, whether they prefer working with someone else or alone, and much more. To the extent that coaching and tutoring take such individual differences into account, their quality will improve. Doing so requires the teacher to know each student well. But with self-directed learning, it is also important for the teacher to help individual students know their own preferences well. This teaches students to understand how they learn best and to advocate for the support they need. It is difficult but helpful to relate the demonstrations and practice to the student’s interests and tailor them to the student’s preferences. Eventually, intelligent tutoring systems will be developed to learn such things about each student and personalize the coaching and tutoring effectively.
Personalized Assessment
Personalizing assessment empowers and motivates students. Here are a few questions your team should consider.
Who should assess the student?
In most cases, the teacher will assess each student. But there are considerable benefits to having students assess themselves as well. It develops an important life skill, empowers the student, and often provides a deeper understanding of the content. Similarly, there are benefits to peer assessment. It typically enhances the learning of both students, and the feedback provided is usually more thorough (and personalized) than the teacher can afford to give to every student. If your school has an LMS with good tutorials, it can be designed to provide assessment with highly personalized feedback. Finally, teachers might consider using outside experts to assess final products or presentations for projects. This provides a level of authenticity that can be motivating for students.
What format should the assessment take?
Different students can benefit from different formats for assessment. Options include live performances, written reports, video reports, material products, software, and much more. Helping students to choose their formats empowers students and enhances their motivation.
Personalized Reflection
Having students reflect on their project experiences is one of the most powerful and underused instructional strategies. Here are a few questions for your team to consider.
How can teachers personalize reflection on the way the project was conducted?
Teachers can personalize the timing of the reflection by doing it during the project, at the end of the project, or both. They can personalize the format of the reflection by having it done in writing or through discussion, or a combination of the two. And they can personalize the participants by having it done individually, as a team, or in a large group with several teams. Of course, the points of reflection—often guided by a rubric—can also be personalized.
How can teachers personalize reflection on the learning that occurred?
Teachers can similarly personalize the timing, format, participants, and points of reflection on learning. The points of reflection could address the questions, What were the most important things you learned? How good was the learning process? How could it have been better?
