Acknowledgments
As we worked to develop this book, it was clear to us that we needed to work with other educators, share ideas, and see how elementary- and secondary-level teachers utilize the five elements of personalized learning and five instructional strategies for responding to question 4 that we champion in this book. The following educators offered expertise to the writing team in many ways. We visited or interviewed many of them to gain ideas to support our narrative regarding one or more of these elements or methods.
