Centric Learning empowers students to learn at the speed of life
Navigating the dynamic landscape of online education demands careful consideration in selecting the platform that aligns with your academic goals. The digital sphere is saturated with a myriad of options, each boasting unparalleled experiences. At Centric Learning Academy, we make sure every student has a meaningful and rewarding education that's different from other online educational solutions.
So what makes us unique?
Project-Based Learning Framework
At Centric Learning Academy, we are proud to be an online virtual school for grades 3-12 that offers an engaging learning environment that differs from the traditional classroom.
Our curriculum is entirely focused on Project-Based Learning (PBL). PBL is an instructional approach where students actively explore real-world problems and challenges. Students work on a project over an extended period of time, engaging in an in-depth investigation and often across multiple subject areas. This approach encourages students to take control of their learning, fostering critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
Here is an example of a project we offer on our platform called "DocYOUmentary":
Each project starts with a driving question that guides the student to project's purpose. In this project, students learn about what a documentary is and how they can film their own as their final product.
Projects on our platform are always engaging and include instructional videos and infographics as well as interactive activities and 24/7 live chat support!
Competency-Based Assessment
What else makes us stand out? At Centric Learning Academy, we don't grade student work in the traditional way with letter grades or scores.
Competency-Based Assessment is an educational evaluation approach that focuses on measuring an individual's proficiency and mastery of specific skills, knowledge, and abilities rather than relying solely on traditional grading methods. In this assessment model, the emphasis is on what a student can do or demonstrate effectively rather than their performance in a specific time frame.
How does competency-based assessment tie into student work at Centric Learning Academy?
Our certified teachers provide students with insightful feedback on their work submissions. Students then have the option to go back and re-submit new work in order to get a higher proficiency level on a specific strand. Subject areas can have multiple strands. Here's an example of what an Argumentative Writing strand for English 12 looks like:
