360 degree skills assessment

The 21st-century skills are challenging to develop, assess and recognise. Traditional means of validation and recognition, such as tests and exams, do not capture such skills development. We must adapt and use innovative validation and recognition solutions to new skills, assessment practices and talent development programmes.
 
﻿Digital Open Badges (micro-credential) have the potential to adapt and be used to validate and recognise learning and achievements within and outside traditional education systems.
﻿
The new assessment functionality enables a 360° assessment system on the Cities of Learning platform. It combines self-assessment and external feedback from other learners, mentors and supervisors. Activity organisers are able to upload and use specific competence models aligned to a particular framework of qualification or occupational standard.
﻿
Cities of Learning platform has the following skills assessment features and functionalities:
﻿
