hechternacht 19:59@colport whoosh! Good Luck! It sure is tricky sometimes! :D Routing

for you here in NJ USA! #ukedchat

colport 19:59 Tonight's session came 2nd a few weeks ago, from @janwebb21 's poll.

#ukedchat should be interesting this evening. Plenty of interest.

colport 20:00 Ok, good evening, and welcome to #ukedchat for this week. The vote

went to Personalised Learning. How to achieve it! Enjoy the chat.

ukedchat 20:00 If UR new to #ukedchat here are a few tips 1-Don't try to follow EVERY

tweet, 2-remember the #ukedchat hash tag, 3-respond to int. tweets

GaryAveryICT 20:01 But what is the definition of personalized learning? #ukedchat

colport 20:01#ukedchat - Personalised learning - Is it achievable? If so, how?

colport 20:01@hechternacht Very kind. This discussion is attracting an international

interest, so should be an interesting #ukedchat

hechternacht 20:02@colport yes! just found and joined your wiki! Excited to find you!

Didn't know the time for #ukedchat

rashush2 20:02what do we mean when we say personalised learning? #ukedchat

RT @colport: Ok, good evening, and welcome to #ukedchat for this

Enjoy the chat.

rashush2 20:03 @colport which are? #ukedchat

colport 20:03#ukedchat - Does personalisation mean more work for educators

though @gus7268 ?

ianpocock 20:03RT @rashush2: what do we mean when we say personalised learning?

#ukedchat < I agree

colport 20:03RT @gus7268: @colport It can be achieveable given the right

conditions. #ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:04#ukedchat the problem with personalised learning is that you can

pretty much make the concept embrace anything

egalr 20:04To me personalised learning means allowing children to take control of

their own learning #ukedchat

GaryAveryICT 20:04 One conference I went to was about personalizing the whole school

environment and curriculum to the needs of the pupils..#ukedchat

EduTechSmith 20:04 @MattSL to me Yes #ukedchat

hechternacht 20:04to me personalized learning already is by definition- are you meaning

personalized instruction? #ukedchat

MattSL 20:04 #ukedchat personalised learning = differentiation. Yes or no?

GaryAveryICT 20:05@ianpocock no, I think it means a flexible curriculum driven by the

pupils and want they want to learn. #ukedchat

colport 20:05 RT @malcolmbellamy: I have a problem with differentiation when itmeans fixed groupings #ukedchat

oldandrewuk 20:05 RT @GiftedPhoenix: #ukedchat the problem with personalised learning

is that you can pretty much make the concept embrace anything

primarypete_ 20:05@MattSL i'd say so - differentiated at an individual level #ukedchat

malcolmbellamy 20:05I have a problem with differentiation when it means fixed groupings

#ukedchat

oldandrewuk 20:06@GiftedPhoenix #ukedchat I like to interpret "personalised learning" to

mean setting.

mathmurd 20:06

RT @GaryAveryICT: @ianpocock no, I think it means a flexible

curriculum driven by the pupils and want they want to learn.

#ukedchat yep

colport 20:06To me, personalised respects the individual, but how is this achievable?

#ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:06#ukedchat The chart on p9 of this DCSF document might be a good

example of the many facets - http://bit.ly/dQZTcV

ICTmagic 20:06RT @ukedchat: Joining the UKEDCHAT discussion this evening? Pleaseremember to include #ukedchat at the start of your tweets to be

included in archive.

MattSL 20:06@GaryAveryICT surely ALL school environments & curriculum should

be personalised towards the pupils needs #ukedchat

ICTmagic 20:06 RT @ukedchat: "Personalised learning - a pipe dream or achievable?

how to make it real?" #ukedchat starts in 20 minutes with @colport

sbyrne4 20:06 #ukedchat PL is easier to monitor for SEN. Kids at top end are so smart

the personalised is simply to provide opportunities to explore more

willhaywood 20:07#ukedchat I think it can mean a choice of how pupils attempt an

activity or in what way are they assessed

primarypete_ 20:07 I think for personalised learning to be successful, a complete change in

standard pattern of T&L needs to occur. Must be ch led #ukedchat

mattbuxton10 20:07 PL works on 2 levels; kids study things which mean something to them

ESP past14, & in ways they utilise their skills/interests #ukedchat

colport 20:07RT @gus7268: Fixed grouping goes against everything differentiation

stands for #ukedchat

GaryAveryICT 20:07@MattSL are they though? How many schools still use QCA units with

no adaptation or input form the pupils.. #ukedchat

jennitonic80 20:07 #ukedchat http://nationalstrategies.standards.dcsf.gov.uk/node/83151

definition here

7puzzle 20:07#ukedchat PL is setting the learning conditions, method and

environment so an individual can perform at their best?

malcolmbellamy 20:07personalisation means individual needs and interests not a fixed

curriculum #ukedchat

fhesbusiness 20:08 Some teachers in department have started emailing studentspersonalied instructions before each ICT lesson. Works well #ukedchat

kvnmcl 20:08Personalised learning can happen if there's no fixed curriculum, fixed

means everyone does the same #ukedchat

AdiNotNow 20:08 @colport @malcolmbellamy 2 of 2 #ukedchat he argues that we

should not treat all children the same or group even by age.

GiftedPhoenix 20:08 @oldandrewuk #ukedchat Just setting or are there other forms oforganising learners by ability that you'd countenance?

mrshgm 20:08 @colport @gus7268 Agreed! #ukedchat

GaryAveryICT 20:08@ianpocock maybe, but the overall learning stays the same but the

method or contexts could change. #ukedchat

cherrylkd 20:08@primarypete_ #ukedchat Is that possible in mainstream?

Individualisation?

GiftedPhoenix 20:09 #ukedchat I think the responses to the definition question pretty much

demonstrate how broad a concept we have here...

jennitonic80 20:09 #ukedchat have tried PL VERY hard work, pays off but only for thosekids interested in the subject in the first place

primarypete_ 20:09 I don't have all answers but individual comps, targets & high TA levels

would help but think it is ideology rather than reality #ukedchat

colport 20:09 @AdiNotNow @malcolmbellamy It's difficult when you are faced with

a class of 30 pupils...even more of a challenge to 2nd'ary #ukedchat

AdiNotNow 20:09 @colport @malcolmbellamy Which is the argument Ken Robinson

delivers in his TED talk on changing education paradigms. ... #ukedchat

ch led #ukedchat

malcolmbellamy 20:10@colport I agree, Ken Robinson is arguing that personalisation has to

be about individual talents and interests #ukedchat

fhesbusiness 20:10 I think the most able should be encouraged to create PLNs to support

learning and take the lead on personalising their learning #ukedchat

ICTmagic 20:10 I differentiate 4 ways in most of my lessons & adapt input/task to the

child to fine tune. I still have to group in a class of 34! #ukedchat

AdiNotNow 20:10@AdiNotNow @colport @malcolmbellamy Sorry forgot the hastag :-{

#ukedchat

oldandrewuk 20:10 RT @GiftedPhoenix: @oldandrewuk #ukedchat Just setting or are there

other forms of organising learners by ability that you'd countenance?

GaryAveryICT 20:10 seems to me flexible learning is more suited to 'smaller' single formentry schools, what I'd do wouldn't impact other classes. #ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:11RT @fhesbusiness: I think the most able should be encouraged to

create PLNs to support learning #ukedchat

AdiNotNow 20:11

@colport @malcolmbellamy agreed which is why he argues for

scrapping current system which doesn't work for the 21C Hence

paradigm #ukedchat

colport 20:11@GiftedPhoenix Do you mean this image #ukedchat

http://yfrog.com/h75shktj

iteachyear4 20:11 @GaryAveryICT I agree - it's a lot harder to do when there are multiple

form classes. Would it be possible to open the classes up? #ukedchat

mattbuxton10 20:11

PL is much more than differentiation; same objectives, but flexible

outcomes - how they demo their learning & understanding varies

#ukedchat

malcolmbellamy 20:12 classroom organisation must change if we are to do real

personalisation it's not abt 30 same age children in a class #ukedchat

cherrylkd 20:12 @colport #ukedchat Going to be controversial. Are we not paid to

differentiate to enable everyone to learn in best way for them?

GiftedPhoenix 20:12 @colport #ukedchat Yes - that's the one

AsherJac 20:12@fhesbusiness #ukedchat why only the most able? Wouldn't mixed

ability groups be more productive all round?

rashush2 20:12@iteachyear4 tricky but possible - also parallel classes do not have to

be clones #ukedchat

jackieschneider 20:13#ukedchat - surely all learning is personalised learning? Or am I missing

something?

colport 20:13 Do you personalise your own children's lives? I don't treat my daughter

exactly the same, as they are completely different #ukedchat

rashush2 20:13@cherrylkd Yes. But there are only 24hrs in a day. Balance? #ukedchat

iteachyear4 20:13 @rashush2 Very true, but could open a minefield of issues if one class

does one thing and other does something else. #ukedchat

MathsChatterbox 20:13 In a typical primary class - kinaesthetic+aural+visual learners x 3 ability

groups = plan personalised learning for 9 diff groups? #ukedchat

mattbuxton10 20:14

@willhaywood completely agree - same knowledge can be displayed

by using different skills. decisions are fundamental to learning

#ukedchat

AdiNotNow 20:14 @cherrylkd @colport Differentialtion should happen lesson by lesson.

That's what AfL is for. group by input/starter AfL #ukedchat

fhesbusiness 20:14 @AsherJac perhaps. I do think creating a truly effective PLN and using

properly is quite advanced stuff - would love to be wrong #ukedchat

Nevagonnabslim 20:14 #ukedchat I think personalised learning happens constantly in BTEC orcoursework based lessons but Naturally without paperwork constraints

colport 20:14@jackieschneider You need to be careful between differentiation and

personalisation, IMHO #ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:14 #ukedchat Personalised learning isn't necessarily the same as

individualised learning - but IT is making that easier than it was?

caroljallen 20:14 I agree with you! RT @cherrylkd: @colport #ukedchat Going to becontroversial. Are we not paid to differentiate to enable everyone to...

rashush2 20:14@iteachyear4 Yes. Interesting issues that are worth wrestling with,

mostly! hee hee #ukedchat

colport 20:14@cherrylkd Controversial welcomed ;-) #ukedchat We probably are,

but is it realistic?

MattSL 20:15 #ukedchat to suggest that we don't need to personalise T & L suggests

that it's ok for certain students to not have their learning needs met

bucharesttutor 20:15One of the main reason, S's prefer tutors to teachers, it is due to the

personalized learning #ukedchat he he lucky me

iteachyear4 20:15RT @malcolmbellamy: the key is not to treat 30 children as if they all

had the same interests and needs #ukedchat

cherrylkd 20:15@malcolmbellamy #ukedchat agreed. Reduce class sizes to enable PL

Mallrat_uk 20:15#ukedchat I am secondary science and I wouldn't have to do AS much

differentiation if the sets were done properly!

colport 20:15@GiftedPhoenix #ukedchat - I think I.T. has a major role to play, but is

it a priority within the education system?!? :-s

Ariellah 20:15Great reading on #personalized Learning, The what and how

http://bit.ly/iggYoc #ukedchat

iteachyear4 20:15@rashush2 Yeah :-) Just wonder how I would feel if my child was in a

'boring' class whilst others are in exciting? #ukedchat

malcolmbellamy 20:15the key is not to treat 30 children as if they all had the same interests

and needs #ukedchat

fhesbusiness 20:16 @cherrylkd @colport I don't think it always come down to pay or

willingness but time. Family also deserve our time #ukedchat

iteachyear4 20:16@rashush2 Not at all! What a boost it must be too if you're the teacher

in the 'exciting' class ;-) #ukedchat

primarypete_ 20:16

@colport think there is overlap between differentiation and

personalised learning but PL is wider concept about fabric of learning

#ukedchat

mathmurd 20:16 RT @Catriona_O: #ukedchat a big part of personalised learning is

invloving learners in the planning of the learning - no? Yep - ownership

jackieschneider 20:16#ukedchat - do teachers deliver "learning" - can we control what kids

learn?

GaryAveryICT 20:16 RT @Catriona_O: #ukedchat a big part of personalised learning is

invloving learners in the planning of the learning - no? - oh yes

Page 5 of 25


6/25

ICTmagic 20:16 @cherrylkd Not controversial at all & I'm sure that every educator here

tries their upmost. But what can be improved? #ukedchat

rashush2 20:16@iteachyear4 would it be better if they were all boring? #ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:16#ukedchat@fhesbusiness The most able are quite often the

'pathfinders' for universal provision

Catriona_O 20:16#ukedchat a big part of personalised learning is invloving learners in

the planning of the learning - no?

davestacey 20:16Still putting boys to bed. Will try and catch second half of #ukedchat

caroljallen 20:16

@colport Yes, and are we delivering teaching and learning of a

standard that we would be happy for our own children to receive?

#ukedchat

colport 20:16@AdiNotNow @cherrylkd Absolutely, but you probably need to

differentiate 30 different ways in some classes #ukedchat

davestacey 20:17 Current system is like battery farming, but with some having slightly

bigger cages near the window. We need free range learning #ukedchat

willhaywood 20:17

@mattbuxton10 #ukedchat the danger through too much choice is

that students can avoid the same methods and so not develop certain

skills

malcolmbellamy 20:17a big part of personalised learning is to give pupils time to learn and

not be controlled by a clock #ukedchat

jackieschneider 20:17RT @Catriona_O: #ukedchat a big part of personalised learning is

invloving learners in the planning of the learning - no?

dan_bowen 20:17

RT @fhesbusiness: Some teachers in department have started emailing

students personalied instructions before each ICT lesson. Works well

#ukedchat

AsherJac 20:17 #ukedchat PL isn't about the teacher preparing 30 different lessons in

one it's about creating 1 lesson which is open-ended.

marc_faulder 20:17 Personalised learning is used in successful nurseries, along with topic

planning, we should turn to #eyfs for advice #ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:17#ukedchat @colport Well tweeting teachers are a biased sample but

the fact there are so many is a good sign!

sarahjnl 20:17

Mallrat_uk 20:17 #ukedchat I have 2 year 9 groups and a year 7 group that I only see one

hour a week.. Barely get to know them enough to personalise!

Ariellah 20:17

Yes @GaryAveryICT: RT @Catriona_O: #ukedchat a big part of

personalised learning is invloving learners in the planning of the

learning

colport 20:17@primarypete_ Absolutely. It goes deeper than PL, in my opinion

geraldhaigh1 20:17 #ukedchat Can't provide every child with a personalised curriculum.

Can help each child to develop their own experience of the curriculum.

Catriona_O 20:17@mathmurd @GaryAveryICT thank you! for me that's what it's all

about.....#ukedchat

ICTmagic 20:18

colport 20:18@malcolmbellamy TIME!!! This is key, and a major challenge in many

educational settings. #ukedchat

BobToms100 20:18 Yes. we can carry out personalised learning but if class nos are 26-30+ ,

cycles will be long & learning will be slow #ukedchat #edchat

jennitonic80 20:18 @malcolmbellamy tips on how to do that? #ukedchat

MattSL 20:18 @Catriona_O yes #ukedchat

rashush2 20:18@iteachyear4 also the 'boring' teacher copies more exciting ideas that

way. Not all of them, but some. #ukedchat

rashush2 20:19@iteachyear4 well a good natured draw most of the time, but that's

fine ;-) #ukedchat

a wiki and VLE, but choose the wiki. http://bit.ly/burrett #ukedchat

trainieteacher 20:21 The #ukedchat should be an interesting one tonight!!

GiftedPhoenix 20:21 #ukedchat a personal bugbear is that organising learners and the

curriculum by age rather militates against personalised learning

AdiNotNow 20:21

@GaryAveryICT @colport Very personalised in EYFS but then they go

to yr1. It seems to become far less PL based. Shock for children#ukedchat

colport 20:21@marc_faulder #ukedchat Sounds brilliant, but where is the time to

implement?

MathsChatterbox 20:21 @gus7268 I know - personalised learning done well is invaluable to a

child - but a hard juggling act for teacher with 30 kids #ukedchat

Ariellah 20:21Does Personalize learning requires top rank teachers for it to work?

#ukedchat

colport 20:21

@GaryAveryICT Just putting it into the #ukedchat debate. The

personalisation agenda within EYFS appears to be a tick box exercise! :-

(

colport 20:22@AdiNotNow @GaryAveryICT Agree, but a bit of a box ticking exercise

for EYFS colleagues? #ukedchat

jackieschneider 20:22#ukedchat - the kids already personalise their learning in their free

time - we just ignore it in class

malcolmbellamy 20:22I think personalised learning requires teachers who are exemplar

learners #ukedchat

mattbuxton10 20:22

@willhaywood agree again, and THAT is our big challenge; give access

to numerous ways to achieve outcomes, for them to then choose

#ukedchat

rashush2 20:22oooh good q RT @Ariellah: Does Personalize learning requires top rank

teachers for it to work? #ukedchat

cherrylkd 20:22@Mskinnider #ukedchat fantastic idea. Love the EYFS philosophy. It

works well and is true PL

colport 20:22 @Ariellah Top rank, and dedicated/organised? #ukedchat

GiftedPhoenix 20:23#ukedchat I think PL places a lot of emphasis on effective assessment

and tracking

mrcICT 20:56@wjputt Agreed re #qrcodes just d'loaded some to print off and

laminate tomorrow for extension activities #ukedchat

karenf59 20:56#ukedchat it can also help them to think about inclusion and diversity if

part of their task to include suitable tasks

colport 20:56To finish, let's think of the future. Will AFL and personalisation fit

within the agenda of the new UK government? #ukedchat

fullonlearning 20:56 RT @cherrylkd: @colport #ukedchat AFL is way forward. Don't teach to

test, follow AFL principles and they'll meet standard as a consequence

Catriona_O 20:56 RT @davestacey: RT @MrGPG Psn (done with a learner) Differentiation

(done to a learner) #ukedchat good distinction

LeahJames21 20:59 @colport if not I think it will be up to each teacher to decide how to

implement it alongside the new curr - it's too important! #ukedchat

marc_faulder 20:59 @natfantastic brilliant :-) and I find it can mean less paperwork before

the learning happens! Afl becomes much more real too #ukedchat

itsmotherswork 20:59 RT @trainieteacher: #ukedchat Sometimes we don't listen to children

enough in schools! Without the children a school wouldn't even exist!

colport 20:59I have not even mentioned @evernote within this #ukedchat

discussion. Great opportunities within education there!

colport 21:00Thanks very much for all your #ukedchat contributions this evening.

Wow, an amazing chat.

josepicardo 21:00RT @davestacey: Important not to forget the 'why are we learning this'

in conversations with learners #ukedchat

JOHNSAYERS 21:00 Gutted missed the #ukedchat tonight:( planning an interview:( I'mreally interested in personalised learning! My interview is it!

of them in use in Rec class

ukedchat 21:00It's 9pm. @colport was your host this evening, and the #ukedchat

archive process will start in approx. 20 minutes.

GiftedPhoenix 21:00RT @mberry: @GiftedPhoenix I imagine Gove would see differentiation

as the opposite of integration #ukedchat

LeahJames21 21:01 @ICTmagic that is such a shame! You get a nice head then the funds

are cut... Maybe try fund raising to gather some money? #ukedchat

cherrylkd 21:01@mrgpg@wjputt #ukedchat thank you. Apology for missing you. I'm

learning!

MrGPG 21:02 @cherrylkd ;-) we are all -- fast paced evening #ukedchat

davestacey 21:02Thanks for another great #ukedchat! Struggled a bit to keep up on my

phone but always worth while!

ICTmagic 21:02 @cherrylkd I agree and am a big fan of in house training, but playing

devil's avocate, that more time/jobs teachers have to do. #ukedchat

fhesbusiness 21:03 @Mosettig_Biz I do use VLE 4 all lesson plans and and offer extension,

multimedia etc but not all students will accessin own time #ukedchat

KShaw1977 21:03@colport gutted I missed @ukedchat tonight! Totally my kind of thing

with working in EYFS!

colport 21:03 @mattbuxton10 I know. That's the worry :-s #ukedchat

Pederosa 21:03 busy delivering kids 2 clubs & missed 2nite's #ukedchat : regardless of

gove-nment policy make the decisions u know work best 4 ur kids

mattbuxton10 21:03 @colport no; #ebacc is a slap in the face to PL for a start!! "broad &

balanced curriculum" talked about & league tabled against! #ukedchat

iamclairei 21:03

@karenf59 Y6 are hoping to do one around our church(attached to

school and lots of interesting features)or Stations of the Cross

#ukedchat

LeahJames21 21:03@colport thank you for an interesting #ukedchat :) I learnt a lot

tonight!

JOHNSAYERS 21:03 @tonycassidy next one I promise:) hosting #ukedchat again next week

on displays. We've set up a flickr account to upload to

Dave_C_Vernon 21:04

#ukedchat wonders if Mr. Gove and Mr Osbourne have joined up

thinking investing in tec unis whilst introducing the eng bacc. ICT, tech,

Bus?

ICTmagic 21:04

@LeahJames21 Trying & asking for old tech donations. Looking at using

old web mobiles on network. One of my hair-brained schemes.

#ukedchat

clairegowland 21:04@mrcICT It seems that as an ICT teacher, I should have known that!

but the principles are spot on #ukedchat

before a return from maternity!

cherrylkd 21:23 @ICTmagic #ukedchat Agreed but wouldn't it be worthwhile to get

home trained staff. But I'm cpd leader so I would say that

ICTmagic 21:26 @cherrylkd Yes, every sch has untapped talent & skills which should be

past on. Investment in time is more that worth the gains. #ukedchat

ICTmagic 21:28 @LeahJames21 Yes. They're good kids. We're also working on this site

as a Y5/6 group http://speechbubbles.wikispaces.com #ukedchat

jodieworld 21:30My blog on the touching Year 6 boy blog! http://bit.ly/gHx7px - short

colport 21:31@ktenkely So, does personalised not mean individualised? #ukedchat
