The Individual Learning Plan What is it? How is it used? Where do we each fit in?
The Individual Learning Plan The ILP is best understood as the student’s suitcase…
The Individual Learning Plan …for his/her journey through grades k-12 on the way to further training and a career.
The Individual Learning Plan The ILP stays with the student all along the way as he/she continues “movin’ down the highway.”
The Individual Learning Plan After graduation, the student will take a new direction. However, some of the contents from the ILP will be in his/her new luggage.
The Individual Learning Plan On the K-12 journeythe ILP holds the student’s necessities and souvenirs. Some contents of the ILP go into the student’s new “suitcase” for the next part of his/her journey.
The Individual Learning Plan The contents of the ILP fall into three major categories… • academic achievement • career awareness and education • life planning and management
The Individual Learning Plan “Academic achievement” includes data about the student’s attendance, participation in extra- curriculars, performance on standardized assessments, and mastery of the concepts and skills from classes.
The Individual Learning Plan “Career awareness and education” combines the student’s knowledge of how the world of work is organized with an understanding of his/her career interests, personal talents, and workplace values into a plan for making a successful career choice.
The Individual Learning Plan “Life planning and management” refers to our preparing the student to use his/her academic knowledge, self-awareness, and skill at problem-solving/decision-making to move effectively through the transition points in life. “Learning to learn.”
ILP Components • Academic Achievement • Career Awareness and Education • Life Planning and Management
Academic Achievement • Establish learning and/or developmental goals in the three domains including action plans and review • Academic • Career • Personal/Social
Life Planning & Management:The Portfolio/ePortfolio • Transcript • Assessment & inventory data • Examples of work showing mastery of specific benchmarks and/or standards • Student’s personal-goals statement • Co-curricular activities showing leadership plus interest/skill development • Service-learning experiences • Work experience • Awards/Honors • Special skills
The Individual Learning Plan Throughout grades k-12 many different adults help the student pack, unpack, and re-pack the ILP so it accurately reflects his/her progress on the journey toward positive, productive adulthood in an increasingly interdependent world.
The Individual Learning Plan Family Friends Teachers Bosses Coaches Mentors
The Individual Learning Plan No one adult can provide everything a student needs for successfully negotiating the transition from childhood to adulthood. The ILP is one place where the input from all the adults comes together for the student.
The Individual Learning Plan Research shows that today being ready for a career and being ready for college require the same preparation in high school.
The Individual Learning Plan How can we use the ILP to give every student and family the best information and planning tools we have on the student’s K-12 journey? “Every Day is a Winding Road”
