Core Competencies
Core Competencies
From the BC curriculum: https://curriculum.gov.bc.ca/competencies
The core competencies in the new BC curriculum are sets of intellectual, personal, social and emotional proficiencies that all students need to develop in order to engage in deep and life-long learning. The three core competencies are: communication, thinking and personal and social. Core competencies are evident in every area of learning, however, they manifest themselves uniquely in each discipline. Students practice these competencies daily as they are an integral part of the learning in all curriculum areas.
Communication: The set of abilities that students use to impart and exchange information, experiences and ideas, to explore the work around them and to understand and effectively engage in the use of digital media.
Thinking (creative and critical): The knowledge, skills and processes associated with intellectual development. It is through their competency as thinkers that students take subject-specific concepts and content and transform them into a new understanding. Thinking competence includes specific thinking skills as well as habits of mind and metacognitive awareness.
Personal and social: The set of abilities that relate to students’ identity in the work, both as individuals and as members of their community and society. Personal and social competency encompasses the abilities students need to thrive as individuals, to understand and care about themselves and others and to find and achieve their purposes in the world.
