Personalized Learning Strand Topics - Do Not Delete

Identity 

• Who are we?
• Where are we on PLPs and proficiency based education?
• What do we need to know?
• Who are our partners to assist us designing and implementing this plan?
• What do we need from them?

Goals

• As you develop goals for the strand, and your vision for personal learning plans and curriculum, consider these standards. These support the development of student-centered educational experiences that align with the state of Vermont's move towards personalized and proficiency based learning. 

Growth and Reflection

• What are goals and action steps in learning about and designing a PLP implementation plan?
• What changes do we need to make during our work at the Institute?
• How can we design an Action Research Project that will allow us to gather information to modify and revise our plan during the fall and beyond?

Transformation 

• What does the plan look like in phase two (after we have implemented the PLP process/cycle one full round)?
• What is that time frame for each cycle (each quarter, semester, year)?
• What does it look like for teachers and students in year two who have gone through the process already (is this a 1 year implementation plan (grade 7) , a two year plan (grades 7 & 8), a three year plan (grades 6-8) or a 4 year plan (grades 5-8)?
• How do proficiency based learning and assessments become a part of the PLP process?
• How do middle grades PLPs prepare students for learning opportunities (in and out of school) at the high school level?
