Birdville HS English Teacher Incorporates Personalized Learning Paths

When the Spring 2016 semester began last week,  Adrian Baylor’s English 1 students also started a new learning experience.   This new experience will be one of the ways that they prepare for the upcoming  STAAR EOC English 1 state assessment.  The students first completed a Renaissance Star Reading online assessment.   A test translator system, then imported the assessment data into the CompassLearning program and automatically generated personalized instruction paths for each student, beginning at his or her own proficiency level.   Mrs. Baylor will be working with her students in the lab one day a week to master the lessons, and students can also continue to work outside of class on any device with Internet access.
