this growing area of Higher Education. Delegates will be given the

features in this live session.

Just got wind of this new book:

Technology-Supported Environments for Personalized Learning: Methods
and Case Studies

Edited by: John O’Donoghue, University of Central Lancashire, UK
13-digit ISBN: 978-1-60566-884-0
424 pages

Available at http://www.amazon.com/Technology-supported-Environments-Personalized-Learning-Methods/dp/1605668842

Technology-Supported Environments for Personalized Learning: Methods
and Case Studies explores the metaphor of anytime and anywhere
individual education as well as the idea of tailoring instruction to
meet individual needs. A critical mass of the most sought after
industry findings, this innovative collection explores a variety of
leading research in educational skills, knowledge, expertise, and
experience to create the perfect learning space for each person.

Responding to the specific needs of each student, personalized
learning has the potential to refocus education on the individual
rather than the institution
