Digital Learning Competency Framework

A competency framework for and by the digital learning industry

Using within your project

To incorporate the competencies into your project, you can add them as a git submodule:

git submodule add https://github.com/Wyver-Solutions/_digital-learning-competencies _digital-learning-competencies

The underscore is so the files work directly as a [https://jekyllrb.com/docs/collections/](Jekyll collection). You will need to run the above command inside your Collections directory, and then use git pull inside the submodule whenever you want to update.

Framework Structure

• Competency area
  • Sub-category
    • Level 1: Foundation
    • Level 2: Practioner
    • Level 3: Advanced

Each level contains text which describes what a person should be able to do who is working at that level in that area.

Descriptors use Bloom's taxonomy of verbs

File Structure

Within the top section of the page you will find the data for the framework. It is stored between three dashes (---):

---
- title: The competency area
- ID: The ID code for the competency area
- description: The description of the competency area
- items: The list of sub-categories
  - ID: The ID code for the sub-category
  - name: The name of the sub-category
  - L1: The descriptor for level 1
  - L2: The descriptor for level 2
  - L3: The descriptor for level 3

Note to developers

This set of files is designed primarily to work as a Jekyll Collection, but can also be used in any system which can iterate over files and over the YAML data contained within them.
