Student-centered learning is important because it emphasizes the needs, interests, and abilities of students, promoting active engagement and responsibility for their own learning. The attached is a definition that was worked on with other members of the Student-Centered Learning subgroup, which I was the co-lead of. This committee was a one of 6 subgroups for the district's Strategic Planning Committee. This definition was rolled out to all staff at building level faculty meetings and to the community at Strategic Planning Advisory Nights. Proud to have worked on such a comprehensive definition.

Awesome short (15m) interview about a forthcoming update report to 2019 AACRAO research on #CPL, #PLA, #PLAR #RPL, #VPL (pick your acronym), focused on messy #portfolio approaches. This is just Credit for Prior Learning, which I find a bit narrow, even within an academic context (lots of other purposes for recognition)... ...but there's lots of great stuff and I can't wait for the report. The big TIL for me is Jon Calderwood's suggestion about actually developing and credentialing faculty in their roles as Advisors and Assessors for #RPL. They're far and away the key actors in HE, but currently, over 60% have no formal training. Jon suggests that insitutions could start reporting faculty PD as a KPI for academic quality to accreditors. I suggest that accreditors could start asking for it... 8-> Food for thought for the upcoming #VPLBiennale in Ireland and for us up here in Canada, as #CAPLA, Canada's counterpart to CAEL, prepares for a pan-Canadian scan of PD for #RPL. NB: Andy Brown, Bonnie Kennedy and others on the Credentialing and Certification committee. Finally, kudos to Noah Geisel for his ongoing role as a tireless whisperer for #alternativecredentials #digitalbadges #openbadges. Now with #PLA. Will Jon be at the The Badge Summit @ CU Boulder, I wonder?
