Organizations that support Mastery-Based Learning.
Unit Design - Mastery-Based Learning
Because mastery-based learning focuses on results, the Backward Design approach to unit design fits well. In brief, the stages of the Backward Design approach are summarized below
Standards vs. Competencies - Mastery-Based Learning
Standards are the responsibility of the State Board of Education. Standards are proposed by the Connecticut Department of Education and adopted by the State Board of Education. Competencies are the knowledge, skills, and/or behaviors students must master in specific content or performance areas according to the OLD Foundation.
Communications Toolkit - Mastery-Based Learning
The materials in the communications toolkit can help start the conversation about Mastery-Based Learning in your community.
Community Engagement - Mastery-Based Learning
Engaging communities is an essential step in the conversion from a traditional, time-based system to a personalized, competency-based one. The following resources may be helpful to developing a community engagement strategy and communications capacity.
School Interoperability Framework (SIF)
SIF allows districts to directedly transmit data from their student information system to some applications.
Apply to a School Choice Program
The Connecticut State Department of Education’s (CSDE) commitment to public school choice is evident in the different types of public school choice programming available statewide.
School Choice programs and interdistrict magnet schools are designed to attract students from different school districts to learn together in settings that offer unique, high-quality, themed educational opportunities.
The Open Choice program allows urban students to attend public schools in nearby suburban towns.
Agricultural Science and Technology (ASTE)
Agricultural Science and Technology Education (ASTE) programs serve secondary students in full- and shared- time programs. ASTE programs prepare students for college and careers in animal science, agribusiness, agricultural mechanics, aquaculture, biotechnology, food science, marine technology, natural resources, and plant science.
Connecticut public school choice programs are an opportunity to raise student achievement and reduce racial, ethnic and economic isolation. Explore your choices by finding a school or district program.
