ABSTRACT
One of the touchstones of current pedagogy is the encouragement of student-centred approaches to learning.This holds true across all sectors of education. Personalisation of the learning experience is at the heart of this philosophy, and in this chapter we explore the essence of this idea. Using a number of case studies, we discuss the ways in which digital technology may be successfully employed. In this chapter you will:
• understand the origin and development of personalised learning; • explore the dimensions of the concept; • examine the potential of new technology to enhance personalised learning; • study some exemplars and case studies.
