ReviewsFinally, a primer on competency-based education that understands that every school is unique in the same way that every student will take personalized pathways as he or she learns! Hess, Colby, and Joseph provide a comprehensive guide for districts and schools to use in plotting their journey to competency education. One thing that makes this book so valuable and unique is that it is rooted in effective practices identified in John Hattie's Visible Learning research. This is a book that you can trust to help you chart your course., It is clear to me that this new book will be a major step forward for US educators seeking to transform their systems of teaching and learning to one that provides equitable and practical access for every student. As the authors point out in the introduction, the work of transforming to competency-based education is complex, requiring major shifts away from the conventional organizational structures of schools and away from many less-effective teaching and learning structures towards student-centered classrooms. This approach is just right: Competency-based education requires major changes organizationally, however, these shifts must be grounded in transformed experiences of the learner and also of the teacher in the classroom first, and each additional change must support that experience through new structures and reformed culture., "Deeper Competency-Based Learning takes the current caterpillar state of education, where we are beginning to recognize that individualized, personalized learning is key in student success, and provides the wings--the tools and guidance necessary to transform the caterpillar into the butterfly. This book is not a "quick fix" for a classroom problem. It is a transformation of education--the transformation that is critical to meeting students where they are, guiding them through the learning challenges of both academic and interpersonal/intrapersonal skills, and then confidently preparing students for what lies ahead.", Finally, a primer on competency-based education that understands that every school is unique in the same way that every student will take personalized pathways as he or she learns!

This book is not a "quick fix" for a classroom problem. This book is a transformation of education--the transformation that is critical to meeting students where they are, guiding them through the learning challenges of both academic and interpersonal and intrapersonal skills, then confidently preparing students for what lies ahead, beyond the classroom.", I recommend this book for anyone looking to begin or continue your work around competency-based education in your district. This is an easy to read, comprehensive guide to implementation with resources, examples, and several entry points., The beauty and professional appeal of competency-based education (CBE) is that it emphasizes more than just academic success; it places equal value on the vitally important element of students' personal success. In Deeper Competency-Based Learning, co-authors Hess, Colby, and Joseph have created a richly detailed CBE roadmap that any school system can confidently follow to significantly transform their classrooms and make a greater impact on student learning. Helping educators make the often-challenging shift from the traditional teacher-centered instructional model to the learner-centered model can become, for readers, an exciting journey. This powerful book, illustrated with chapter-specific tools, resources, and educator examples, is your trusted 'tour guide' for making this noble vision of a dynamic, learner-centered school system an ultimate reality., The beauty and professional appeal of competency-based education (CBE) is that it emphasizes more than just academic success; it places equal value on the vitally important element of students' personal success.
