Imagine an education system with no grade levels -- or no grades at all! Imagine schools where students advance based on their mastery of the material, not just the passage of time. This is personalized, competency-based learning.
This week’s guest is Charles Reigeluth, Ph.D., an award-winning, internationally renowned author, scholar, and social scientist who has championed a transformative paradigm shift in American education for over 40 years.
In this episode, Dr. Reigeluth explains the revolutionary concept of competency-based learning and its potential to transform the landscape of American education.
