| Abstract | This publication examines current challenges with the articulation of learning and argues that a new means of articulating learning is necessary. Specifically, drawbacks and inefficiencies developed to accommodate the credit hour measure of student learning are examined. As an alternative, a new competency-based measure of learning is proposed. Benefits of such a system would include: (1) Efficiencies and clarity when transferring between postsecondary institutions; (2) Improved effectiveness of costly prior-learning assessment processes; (3) Simplification of capturing and sharing learning that occurred while serving in the military; (4) Enhancing the effectiveness of competency-based hiring processes, particularly in the contemporary workforce that is global and increasingly values contingent employment; (5) Improved articulation of work-based learning, including apprenticeships and internships; (6) Ability to adapt to existing technology and information systems; (7) Applicability toward digital and analog competency development and management systems; and (8) Adaptability to new, innovative, and global learning models. Further, a new taxonomy of learning, based on an index of competencies, would naturally aid competency-based hiring practices. These opinions are informed by existing literature as well as feedback from thought leaders representing various sectors (ERIC). |
