Competency-Based Education=CBE Personalized Learning=PL Standards-Based Grading=SBG

Alphabet Soup


PL is how we help students reach proficiencySBG is how we monitor and communicate progress

CBE provides infrastructure

More Children Guiding Questions


• What do we want students to learn?

• How do we help them to learn it?

• How do we know they have learned it?

• How do we communicate what they have learned?

• What happens when they learn it? What happens when they don’t?

More ChildrenGuiding Questions and More Terms



• Standards … competencies

• Academic content … Non-academic skills

• Learning progressions

• Depth of knowledge

• Other?




• Personalized Learning

• Other?

More Childrene.g.: Innovation Collaborative

for Personalized Learning


• Students advance to higher-level work upon demonstration of proficiency of competencies rather than according to age or seat time.

• Explicit and measurable learning objectives guide student learning, which occurs at the students’ own pace in school, in the community, in workplaces, and through online experiences.

• Skills or concepts are assessed in multiple contexts and multiple ways with attention on student learning and performance, not grades.

• The relationship between student and teacher shifts to co-designers where students have voice and choice in developing their learning pathway.

More ChildrenTable Discussion: How else

would you answer these questions? What

questions do you have?


















• Standards-Referenced Grading (Standards-Based Grading)

Measuring Progress


• Based on Norms– Compared to other students, local norms & the bell curve

• Based on Standards– Individual Teachers - Standards-referenced

• Scales, not grades• Trends, not averaging

– Schoolwide - Standards-based • Students are expected to become proficient in the standards• Organizational capacity to respond to students NYP• Advance upon mastery

• Based on competencies– Builds upon standards, often the same– Competencies capture the big ideas we expect kids to know

and be able to do– Emphasis on application and performance– Learning Taxonomy

More ChildrenTable Discussion



• How do communicate what they have learned?

• Is the distinction between SBR/SBG and CBE clear?

• Other important points?

• Questions? Comments?



• What happens when they learn it? When they don’t?

• Guidance document: “Students advance upon proficiency”
