I am leaning towards believing that adaptive learning will become the new norm in educational institutions. AL is becoming more sophisticated while appealing to a wide variety of students. However, adaptive learning won’t replace teachers, just change how we teach and how the students learn.

I have learned that there are various adaptive learning programs out there.  There are also low-risk alternatives that come im app formats. 

Adaptive learning is not a replacement for the instructor.  It is intended to compliment the instructor.  However, this brings into question where the role of instructor begins and ends.  In our school, we are already experimenting with an LMS.  Through its' use, I intend on trying to make learning a more individualized experience.

I have learned that there are various ways that are available that may help instruct my students.  Adaptive learning is a way to personalize the educational experience to students with varying comprehension levels.  The use of an intelligent tutor is a great way to monitor these levels.  However, the course has yet to give any examples of adaptive learning tools that are available.
