This generation of students has more resources available at their fingertips than any other generation before them! As a society, we are all reveling in the freedom of choice. We have the choice to get just about anything tailored to our exact needs and wants. It has happened in everything from "Have it Your Way" fast food campaigns to customized cell phone plans. It only makes sense for students to be given choices in how they learn by individualizing and personalizing their education. For years, educators have known that all students learn by different means, but finally we are beginning to individualize learning for our students. Join us as we show you how students can reach higher achievement when getting to choose what activities they prefer to reinforce the content being learned, all the while utilizing current technological applications and lessons that are tailored to their personal learning styles.
