Mastery/Competency Learning

The motivation for Mastery Learning comes from trying to reduce achievement gaps for students in average school classrooms...if students are normally distributed with respect to aptitude for a subject and if they are provided uniform instruction (in terms of quality and learning time), then achievement level at completion of the subject is also expected to be normally distributed.

Mastery/Competency Learning

Mastery Learning approaches propose that, if each learner were to receive optimal quality of instruction and as much learning time as they require, then a majority of students could be expected to attain mastery. . .Bloom defended that, if educators are effective, the distribution of achievement could and should be very different from the normal curve. Bloom proposed Mastery Learning as a way to address this. He believed that by using his approach, the majority of students (more than 90 percent) would achieve successful and rewarding learning.

Growth Mindset & Assessment

“When I give a final grade, it is not an average but the grade given for the last revision. In this way, I hope to show students that the intent of evaluation is to offer guidelines for learning rather than terminal judgements.”
