Personalized Competency Based Learning (PCBL) Grant Program LEA Plan Recommendations April 8, 2021 Background: Utah Code: 53-F-5-501 Signed into law 3/17/2021: HB 181 Board Rule: R277-712 The Personalized Competency Based Learning (PCBL) Grants Program has been created to improve educational outcomes in public schools by advancing student mastery through the following core principles: ● Students are empowered daily to make important choices about their learning experiences, how they will create and apply knowledge, and how they will demonstrate their learning. ● Assessment is a meaningful, positive, and empowering learning experience for students that yields timely, relevant, and actionable evidence. ● Students receive timely, differentiated support based on their individual learning needs. ● Students progress based on evidence of mastery, not seat time. ● Students learn actively using different pathways and varied pacing. ● Strategies to ensure equity for all students are embedded in the culture, structure, and pedagogy of schools and education systems. ● Rigorous, common expectations for learning (knowledge, skills, and disposition) are explicit, transparent, measurable, and transferable. The PCBL Advisory Committee reviewed LEA submissions in February and March, according to an established rubric, and recommends the plans on the following page for approval by the Utah State Board of Education. All recommended plans can be accessed by clicking on the LEA’s name in the table.
