Conceptual and a deep conception in personalized education through the Delphi methodology

Abstract

eng[ ]Personalized Education is a common expression in educational fields that presents an axiomatic confusion regarding its scope and meaning, in this article both the theoretical discussion and the information collected empirically from a series of recognized experts are presented. About its definition, purpose, importance, and basic principles. METHOD. To advance in the conceptual and operational clarification of the term, given the conceptual complexity and the difficulty of reaching consensus, a consultation using the Delphi method was chosen, with the contribution of 14 experts, which was carried out in 4 months, through 3 rounds of consultation. RESULTS. The results have allowed consensus on its definition and the convenience of developing tools for evaluating the degree of personalization with a view to offering educators a clear and up-to-date understanding of what it means to educate from this vision. CONCLUSIONS. This is concluded that the concept of personalization implies taking into account an educational model aimed at training unique, autonomous, open, responsible, supportive and resilient people, capable of overcoming and persevering on their own.
