Competency-Based Education
5-part working definition: 1. Students advance upon demonstrated mastery. 2. Competencies include explicit, measurable, transferable learning objectives that
empower students. 3. Assessment is meaningful and a positive learning experience for students. 4. Students receive timely, differentiated support based on their individual learning
needs. 5. Learning outcomes emphasize competencies that include application and creation
of knowledge, along with the development of important skills and dispositions. - CompetencyWorks.org
