Evaluating Individualized Learning Plans

January 17, 2012

There is strong consensus among parents, teachers, and students that individualized learning plans (ILPs) help improve student outcomes. The ILP is a strategic planning tool that helps students align courses with their career goals. ILPs help schools to build climates that are conducive for learning and they’re are an important tool for building relationships between teachers and students.
