Personalization
Personalized learning is the customizing of curriculum and learning environments to suit the expectations of the learner.  This gives the learner an option of adjusting the form of content presentation, adjusting the pace of instructions, so that it can be more individualized and allow the users to choose their own learning path.



Gamification
It is the idea of applying gaming mechanics to learning so that learners can engage themselves with good learning skills.



Why is Gamification important?
It is important because only 10percent of viewers recall what they read and 20 percent what they hear. If there are visuals present, in an oral presentation, then it rises to 30percent and 50percent while someone explain’s a topic with actions.



But the speed of learning and grasping things acquires 90percent when it is learnt individually.
