One Schoolhouse's co-ed, online independent school program uses personalized learning as our primary pedagogical approach. In personalized courses, educators harness the power of technology to chart a new direction for content sequences, academic proficiencies, and student agency. We use a classic model of constructivist learning to promote student agency, where learning is relevant, hands-on, and inquiry-driven. Students are equipped with the capacity to measure their knowledge and skills, and then given some choice in what and how they learn. The tools of personalized instruction increase efficiency and effectiveness around differentiation, remediation, and project-based learning. We believe that choice increases engagement, and engaged students learn more.
