Using the D2L Competencies Tool to Provide Student and Course DataJ.C. Turner, Riverland Community [email protected]
Considerations for Faculty• Will students need to meet all learning
objectives to be competent?• What happens if student doesn’t meet
competency?• Will you have other activities that will not be
attached to a graded item?
Structural Organization• Prior to Competency Set-up• Create hierarchy of structural set up– Institutional Outcomes – Program Outcomes– Learning Objectives– Course Outcomes– Activities
D2L Admin Level Set-up• Enable Competencies & Template permissions• Create Course Templates• Create top level Competencies• Add Organizational Units (templates) to each top level
competency• Add Competencies and Outcomes to templates• Edit Competency Structure with Parents and Children• Create future courses using Templates• Faculty will then attach activities to Competencies and
Outcomes within courses

exported• We are data rich and analytics poor• Data-driven decision making is hampered• Data falls off the system every semester• Better accreditation reporting
