This document outlines how a personalized learning system called Fronter can be used by teachers, students, and others. It describes how teacher pages can be used to provide resources and celebrate student work. Student pages allow for teacher-led assignments, continuing homework, and showcasing interests. The forum tool enables recommending websites, collecting ideas, and assessing learning. Tests, surveys, and shared spaces are also utilized to benefit personalized learning.
