Core Competencies: Self-Assessment
Core Competencies are foundational to our new British Columbia curriculum. This ensures that students are always mindful of their growth in their communication, thinking and personal and social responsibility.
The emphasis on self-reflection promotes personalization and student ownership of their learning and it becomes a natural part of the learning process.
Teachers support students in self-assessment by intentionally noticing, naming, and connecting the Core Competencies to their learning.
Starting this year, students in Grades K-12 across British Columbia will be asked to reflect upon their growth of these competencies as part of the reporting process. At Earl Marriott Secondary, students in Grade 8 and 9 will be asked to self-assess their development in one or more of the core competencies.
Below you will find an overview of each competency and some open-ended and probing questions to help students clarify their thinking and articulate their individual profiles. In June, grade 8 and 9 students will be given an opportunity to respond to some of these questions.
