Abstract
This chapter is designed to inform teachers, administrators, educational policymakers, and researchers on the role of technology in a personalized learning (PL) environment. Because technology and PL are so intertwined, it is impossible to discuss one without the other. It is still unclear the impact technology has on student achievement, but it is clear there are new and additional ethical concerns that have arisen due to the increased use of technology. The primary concern is student privacy. The chapter provides an introduction, background information, and relevant research available regarding the role of technology in a PL environment. Additional resources are provided as well.
