Competency-based education relies on several interconnected systemic efforts designed to fit together to offer maximum academic achievement to all your learners. One of the first steps in CBE is SBG, a focus that shifts a traditional school model to one that offers a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) with a personalized, student-driven learning environment. Research continues to prove this instructional model improves not only academic achievement for all students but also embraces supporting learners’ metacognitive and essential skills needed for success in their future.
