Transitioning to competency-based education (CBE) requires a shift in learning experience design. In this session, you will learn about Building 21’s Studios, which are 6-12 week competency-aligned, problem-based learning experiences that allow students to investigate relevant content and demonstrate mastery of competencies through performance assessments and authentic implementations of learning. You will explore the studio model and leave with essential resources to start designing studios in your school or district.
