Measuring A Student’s Readiness To Move To The Next Concept Through Competency-Based Learning

In Competency-Based Learning, knowledge is not imposed on the learners. Here, students focus on acquiring mastery of knowledge and skills at their own pace.

In classroom-based traditional learning, for a given course, every student earns course credit and gets promoted to the next grade level, but all students do not acquire the same level of proficiency in the course. Some score the best A+ grade, while others may score C or less owing to the different competencies of each learner. So, in a given time period, some learn more than others.

Competency-Based Learning refers to a systematic idea of:

  1. Instruction
  2. Assessment
  3. Grading
  4. Academic reporting 

It requires students to portray learned knowledge and skills as they progress. In modern schools following the prescribed standards, Competency-Based Learning delineates academic expectations and defines several segments of “competency” or “proficiency” for courses or grade levels. Its minimum goal is to ensure knowledge and skills acquisition essential to succeed in chosen fields or career paths. When set expectations are not met, learners are advised and coached with additional academic support to help them achieve the necessary competency levels.

Embibe Product/Features: Learn, Practice, Test, Solve with Us

Focussed on learning outcomes, Embibe efficiently uses Competency-Based Learning for its students by monitoring their objectives and skills through scientifically designed ‘Learn’, ‘Practice’ and ‘Test’ features. Embibe, the AI-based platform, vigilantly recognises and records individual’s competencies at different levels of the learning process. It helps to calibrate, analyse, and provide success roadmaps, strategies, and tools to expedite each learner’s journey towards a predetermined career target or targets. 

One of Embibe’s major features, ‘Practice’, which works on the Competency-Based Learning approach, allows for self-paced learning by appropriately configuring and increasing difficulty levels of questions to help students excel in every particular concept.

To ensure a robust Competency-Based Learning model, Embibe works on various parameters to make it more competitive and goal-oriented. Opportunities for autonomous problem-solving abilities prioritise the needs of every student. Real-time reports, finding concept-wise weakness, diagnosing subject-level proficiency, efficient revision plan on improvement areas, question-level analysis, and comprehensive learning material at concept-level enhances Competency-Based Learning.

‘Solve with Us’ is Embibe’s unique interactive way of solving problems. Embibe has divided the curriculum into granular topics, concepts, and competencies. This helps in understanding strong and weak concepts at a deeper level and providing the required personalised assistance. ‘Solve With Us’ helps to understand important concepts that a student needs to master. If a student is unable to solve a question even after seeing the hint at the question level, they can take the help of ‘Solve With Us’ which guides them in a step-by-step manner to arrive at the solutions/answers. Embibe further provides micro-hints at the step level and as a last resort provides a detailed solution to the problem at hand.
