“Rather than being organized around specific language topics, CBLT courses are developed around competencies and the skills necessary for mastery.”(Griffith & Lim, 2010; Richards & Rogers, 2001; Wong, 2008).
Competency-Based Language Teaching (CBLT)
• Where? Classroom learning guided by the teacher
• How? Pedagogically - Personalized learning plan in the form of reading
materials according to the teacher’s assigned competency
Didactically - Active learning, i.e. interactive video, questions with
immediate feedback, gamification
Module C - The Framework
1. We can design courses and assign learning plans based on
competencies required for individuals or a cohort of learners.
2. Tagging competencies expands Moodle's capabilities of
personalized learning.
3. Once created, a Moodle competencies matrix report will enable the
course designer to cover all required competencies.
4. CBLT enables an analysis of the competencies in a given learning
plan, vs. designing courses based on a subject knowledge.
