Personalize

I think a good way to personalize a student's education is through essays, particularly ones with very open prompts, like:

Identify a set of materials that illuminate an aspect of the novel for you, as a reader.
What do you make of the changes? Feel free to speculate on the reasons for these changes and analyze the effects of these narrative “I” voices.
How do these changes alter the entire frame of the novel?

This personalization would work for any subject, except possibly math.
