This chapter analyzes the impact of personalized learning on student engagement and achievement within the context of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) education. Personalized learning, a pedagogical strategy that tailors instructional methods and resources to the unique needs, talents, and interests of individual learners, has gained popularity as a means to create deeper engagement and better educational outcomes. This chapter dives into the theoretical underpinnings of individualized learning and evaluates its potential to change established teaching approaches in STEAM education. The chapter illustrates how individualized learning practices, assisted by adaptive technologies, promote active involvement and higher levels of accomplishment among students. Through case studies and examples, this research gives insights into how individualized learning might define the future of STEAM instruction, ensuring that students not only meet academic standards but also develop the skills necessary for innovation and creativity in the 21st century.
