The North Dakota Personalized, Competency-Based Learning Initiative: Progress and Outcomes After 5 Years
Description
Personalized, competency-based learning centers each learner’s strengths, needs, and interests by providing differentiated supports and ways to demonstrate what they know—ensuring that each learner graduates ready for what’s next.
The North Dakota Personalized, Competency-Based Learning Initiative launched in 2019 to create equitable outcomes for learners by transforming conventional education systems to personalized, competency-based learning.
This report summarizes the implementation outcomes for the participating districts and the cohort of participants based on WestEd’s evaluation of the initiative. It also provides an analysis of the impact of district participation in the initiative on learner outcomes and shares implications for future personalized, competency-based learning work in North Dakota and beyond.
