🧵 Competency-Based Education (CBE) is the latest vehicle for the Marxism in Education and #moleg is funding it.
Let’s review. ⬇️
Competency-Based Education is “Mastery” Learning.
Forbes from 2018 article explains it well.
What is William Spady’s Outcome-Based Education?
Spady’s OBE pushed performance standards. Think “state standards”.
Competency and Outcome Based Education is built on the idea of Mastery learning. It’s a failed idea.
The UN has been implementing into African Nations to build their workforce training, not to actually educate. Workforce training is communism.
@InstituteAurora is now using Competency-Based Education for Culturally Responsive Education practices that include -> Agency - Performance Assessment - Equity - Clarity of Mastery
I’m Missouri, the state has DEI training for @MoDOT that includes “Cultural Competency”.
WSCC Model (CDC’s Whole Child approach) uses culturally responsive education along with competency-based ed.
Another form of Values Clarification.
All recycled Marxist approaches to “transforming” education.
UN Sustainable goals (SDGs) includes Competency-Based Education.
Aurora Institute’s Competency-Based Education.

Competency-Based Education is the latest vehicle for the Marxism of Education. And it’s being pushed by “conservatives” that are clearly out to lunch on the topic. #moleg
“Power and Privilege”
Charter schools will be quick to usher in Competency-Based Education now that #moleg is funding it.
The testing is the problem. All the assessments are a problem.
ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) forces the state to administer a statewide test. If a state takes federal money it has to adhere to the federal mandates.
What if #moleg didn’t take Federal
Money for Education?
Most States like Missouri have a specific amount mandated to spend on public Ed in their State Constitution. This is amount does not include Federal Revenue, State only.
Missouri Constitution mandates 25% of the State General Rev go to public Ed.
