Competency-based learning and assessment
PILA offers interactive learning activities with embedded, continuous assessment that target 21st century competences. By gathering data on students’ actions in highly interactive digital environments, PILA can help teachers make sense of not only what they know, but also how they use their knowledge to develop solutions to everyday problems.
21st century competencies are the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that students need to develop to thrive in a rapidly changing world. They ensure students are able to use new technologies, solve complex problems, and adapt to change.
PILA contains activities suitable for primary- and secondary-level students.
