New Age Learning

Personalised learning and Inclusive learning are now ingrained words for new age learning- teaching. Our endeavor today should be to put these words into practice. The 21^st century learner needs to be adept at communication in order to collaborate with peers. Critical thinking and thinking out of the box will become key skills apart from 3 R’s i.e. reading, writing and arithmetic. Practice of inclusive strategies has a key role in present day curriculums and the teachers who are participants of CIDTL have wholeheartedly started practicing these strategies at their workplace. 

The International Association for K-12 Online Learning describes "Learner Profiles as involving capturing the individual skills, gaps, strengths, weaknesses, interests, and aspirations of each student. Creating an individual pathway for each student, based on his or her unique learner profile; continually assessing students' progress against clearly defined standards and goals helps in creating enriched and personalized environment. Multiple options and approaches of delivery of instruction to support student learning and some student control over how they learn have also been included in the 5 key elements of personalized learning."
