I'd Love to do Elementary Math Education Again
The longer I homeschool, the more I wish I could start over. Just like the new strollers and baby gadgets on the market that hadn't even been conceived when my kids were babies, there are now so many new and shiny learning programs that I have no use for because my kids are nearing the end of their homeschooling journey.
I have always been partial to technology based learning for certain subjects. I experimented with all kinds of learning software that allowed my kids to "play" their way to acquiring knowledge. While the games my kids played were cool... very cool, the stuff available now is insane. In my opinion, to date, the most natural way to teach homeschoolers is through adaptive learning. Adaptive learning is can now be found in many elementary math education programs in which you will find an individualized approach to teaching, that uses "personalization and also learning systems that dynamically assess and adapt to the student's current knowledge and ability levels".
I love the fact that parents can purchase computer based curriculum and set kids in front of it and allow them to just go for it. Compelling graphics, fun characters, and intuitive programming does the bulk of the work for them. They don't have to worry about alignment to common core standards or any of that other educational mumbo-jumbo. Children don't have to be dragged into a new concept before they are ready, or become a disruption because they have been stuck on a concept for too long waiting for the rest of the class to catch up.
Sure, as homeschoolers, we want to get down and dirty into the trenches of addition, subtraction and multiplication, but trust me, you will want to back off when it comes time to figure out the perimeter of a circles. I know I did anyway. Too bad most of these programs don't go past basic math. While It won't do my kids much good as they've already mastered elementary math education, I am hoping that by the time I have grand kids (take your time kids) that adaptive learning software will be available for kids all the way through high school and beyond.
