Using my technology menu in my Eagle Class

I have created a menu of choices to create a personalized learning environment  in my Eagle Class. The challenge of doing this was  not so much what those menu choices consist of but how to piece the choices together to form a cohesive menu that met the needs of my varied gifted students.
Most importantly, personalizing learning for the current  student demands specific technologies. I  needed to understand that children are growing up in a media-rich environment. I needed to create a menu that engages students and generates within them the desire to learn and I hope I have done just that with my wikki site.  But I have also learned that technology also plays a more important role in the personalization process. Ultimately it is the conduit for me to move to a learning approach that features materials developed for each individual student.
