Personalized learning has been discussed, analyzed and debated among educators from every perspective. In most cases, we agree that student voice and choice is a key ingredient in creating personalized learning environments. Last spring, a senior from Kettle Moraine School District was invited to be a guest blogger on The Institute @ CESA #1 blog to share her thoughts about personalized learning. Gillian Locke, a senior at KM Global Charter School, shared her perspective on the advantages she had in participating in a personalized learning environment and in owning her learning.
Here is just one excerpt from this insightful blog:
"Unlike most seniors in high school, I have the freedom to choose what I want to do when I wake up each morning. I am not limited to an 8 hour bell schedule like my peers, nor does my learning stop when I drive off the high school parking lot at 2:30 pm."
Thank you Gillian for giving a student voice to personalized learning.

KM Explore is a K-5 elementary charter in Wales, Wisconsin in Kettle Moraine School District that embraces the notion of a ‘generative curriculum’ grown from the collective voices and choices of the community of learners, families, and educators of the school itself. Learning at KM Explore is on a continuum where each learner is on a self-propelled journey embedded in a community of learners.
KM Explore includes a Multi-Age Learning environment. They have three different groups of learners; K-1, 2-3, 4-5. Though the learners are in groups due to logistics, they like to embrace the notion that we are "ageless and grade-less".
