This report draws upon a series of seminars held by Futurelab, Demos, Becta and Toshiba between December 2004 and February 2005. The participants and speakers helped to inform and stimulate our thinking and a steering group of colleagues representing a variety of interests and organisations refined and challenged our conclusions. See Personalisation seminar series for more details.

Introduction

The logic of education systems should be reversed so that it is the system that conforms to the learner, rather than the learner to the system. This is the essence of personalisation. It demands a system capable of offering bespoke support for each individual that recognises and builds upon their diverse strengths, interests, abilities and needs in order to foster engaged and independent learners able to reach their full potential.

This challenge has generated much debate as people explore how to respond, both intellectually and practically. For many teachers, the idea of personalisation is familiar and is one of the ideals that brought them into the profession. However, at times, the assessment, funding and institutional contexts in which they operate act not as a driving force for personalisation but as a barrier to it. Personalisation asks us how these systems can be re-shaped around the needs of the learner.

This paper aims to contribute to this debate by articulating a range of ways in which we might move forward in achieving these goals, specifically by harnessing the potential of digital technologies in four key areas central to the goals of personalisation: enabling learners to make informed educational choices; diversifying and acknowledging different forms of skills and knowledge; the creation of diverse learning environments; and the development of learner-focused forms of assessment and feedback.

This paper is not attempting to predict the future - either in terms of educational systems or the digital tools that might emerge to support them - but to outline clearly a set of challenges and opportunities that might form the basis for dialogue about a personalised learning landscape and the role of digital resources in enabling and shaping this arena. In this way it aims to contribute directly to the debates emerging from, for example, the DfES e-Strategy and Five Year Strategy for Children and Learners[1] which prioritise the development of personalised, collaborative learning spaces.
