What is Empirical Research

Personalized learning is here to stay and is being integrated into more and more public schools. Some research on the benefits of personalized learning has been conducted, and other research has been done demonstrating that this form of education will not benefit all students. Research on whether technology should be a form of personalized learning has also been conducted, and the new role that personalized learning will create for teachers has been examined. Personalized learning research is also being conducted on a smaller scale with teachers, and it will change the way professional development is delivered to educators. Despite all the new knowledge that has been gained, more research is required on this educational phenomenon. This chapter describes some of the current data available on personalized learning concerning both students and teachers.
