British Columbia's Core Competencies
The new BC curriculum, which is currently in various stages of implementation, was designed to reflect the changes of the new and demanding world students are entering. Part of this redesign reflects the province’s need for “Educated Citizens” who are able to meet both social and economic goals. The development and implementation of Core Competencies in the new curriculum underpins the curricular competences and directly relate to the educated citizen. The model being utilized by BC Ministry of Education is the “Do You Know Model”. This model breaks knowledge into three sections; Know, Do and Understand.
