This course will become read-only in the near future. Tell us at community.p2pu.org if that is a problem.
The purpose of this P2PU study group is to create an open space for interested University of Wisconsin Parkside faculty and staff to learn about the proposed UW System competency-based Flexible Degree Option. Participants in this group will have a better understanding of what competency-based degrees look like and the external social and economic forces driving universities, including the UW System, to develop such degrees. UW Parkside faculty and staff are welcome to participate using their uwp.edu email account. Postings from real people with real names are welcome. (Anonymous or pseudonymous comments will not be posted by the moderator.)
Please read the CAEL report on Competency-Based Degree Programs in the U.S.: Post Secondary Credentials for Measurable Stduent Learning and Performance.
This recently published report by the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL) provides an excellent summary of the state of post-secondary, competency-based degree programs in the United States. Post your comments about this report here.
