Personalized Competency-Based Education
Students learn at different paces, need different supports, and have different life goals. Personalized competency-based education approaches help educators to tailor teaching and learning in ways that maximize students’ strengths and engage their interests. Such approaches also help cultivate student agency and allow students the time and supports they need to master high standards. Just as each student will create an individualized learning pathway within a personalized competency-based model, each system that seeks to create an approach that works for its students will have many questions to answer, and each decision influences the next. We can help you examine these questions and develop solutions that work.
