Toolkit: Adaptive Learning in Projects and Programs

This Adaptive Learning Basic Toolkit includes a set of practical tools and approaches for designing and implementing a project or program that uses the principles of adaptive learning. An underlying assumption of this toolkit is that adaptive learning approaches are more effective when they are integrated into program design and used systematically for the purpose of program improvement, rather than as a single tool or strategy to be added to a program that otherwise uses conventional approaches.
