Technology to Demonstrate Competencies

Competency-based education focuses on how each person learns differently. It focuses on clear learning objectives that each person can learn and demonstrate in their own way on their own time. I loved the article 100 Things Students Can Create To Demonstrate What They Know. This article had some great ways of demonstrating their knowledge. Some of my favorites were...

1. Song/Music Video
2. Portfolio
3. Poster/Infographic
4. Scrapbook
5. Time Capsule
6. Website
7. Youtube Channel

I love all of these different ways to demonstrate what students know because they are so non-traditional and many can be done virtually. Some of these options (i.e. song/music video, scrapbook, youtube channel, etc.) are projects that could be done by students who like to design or are artistic. While others (i.e. portfolio, poster/infographic, website, time capsule) are projects that could be done by students who like to write.
