New Add-On Package Helps Simplify
the Transition to Competency-Based Education
TORONTO, July 9, 2024
/CNW/ - D2L, a global learning technology company, has
introduced D2L Achievement+ for Brightspace, a new add-on package
that can help institutions and organizations transition to a
competency-based learning model, allowing learners to advance and
help master material at a pace that suits them best.
Competency-based education (CBE) helps enable schools,
institutions, and organizations to deliver learning experiences
that can lead to practical, demonstrable outcomes and genuine skill
mastery. According to a 2020 National Survey on Post Secondary
Education, 82% of U.S. institutions anticipate growth in CBE
programs by 2025, underscoring the increasing demand for
straightforward and effective reporting—this is why D2L created
Achievement+ for Brightspace.
D2L Achievement+ features an intuitive interface that can help
align course activities and assessments with learning outcomes. It
also offers a centralized dashboard for program achievement data,
simplifying accreditation reporting and can provide valuable
insights for continual improvement and upskilling.
"As educational technology leaders, one of our primary goals is
to make it easy to transform learning and deliver real impact,"
said John Baker, Founder & CEO
of D2L. "I'm very proud of our team's work to optimize our platform
to help improve outcomes for learners. The launch of Achievement+
can make it easier to progress students based upon mastery of
learning materials and real outcomes. Ultimately this can give
educators more time back in their day to help students to be better
researchers, scientists, entrepreneurs, artists, or to tackle the
big challenges in our communities."
