Individualized instruction using modules is an educational approach that tailors learning experiences to meet the unique needs, interests, and pace of each student. This method typically involves breaking down content into smaller, self-contained units or modules that students can complete at their own speed. It allows for personalized learning paths, enabling students to focus on areas where they need more support or challenge. This approach promotes autonomy and engagement by allowing learners to take charge of their education.
The main objectives of individualized instruction are to customize the pace of instruction, create an atmosphere of self-regulation, personalize content, and promote a successful learning experience.
