This week, Matt and Courtney talk about whether or not personalized learning can happen in schools. We talk about the bills in the Maine Legislature to delay and/or repeal the law requiring proficiency-based diplomas, and what that means for the movement.  How do we respond to talk (by opponents of changing the way we do school) that test scores aren't improving like we said they would?
