Protocols vs. Precision Medicine
Besides startling side-effects, you find out that Nexium only works for 1 in 25 people (Schork, 2015).
Precision or personalized medicine can identify the traits of individuals that will determine a
drug’s effectiveness. Then doctors can better understand what should be prescribed.

Proving Performance vs. IMproving Learning
Performance Orientation Learning Orientation
Students learning same material at same
time.
Learning driven by students’ goals.
Students focus on tests and grades. Performance linked to effort and progress.
Students placed in grade level based on
age and earn letter grades “to pass.”
Students progress through levels based on
performance and demonstrating mastery.
The pace of learning is directed by the
teacher, technology, or curriculum.
Students accelerate the pace of learning
through goal setting, voice, and choice.
