Performance-based education is an approach for structuring the curriculum, instruction and assessment for the acquisition and application of knowledge, skills and habits of mind through the performance of complex tasks within life and work contexts. Like many new innovations, the implementation of performance-based education is best approached in a systemic manner because all components of the educational system need to operate coherently if this innovation is to make a difference on student learning. 1, record 3, English, - performance%2Dbased%20education

La formation basée sur les compétences attendues, par exemple, part de l'hypothèse voulant que les adultes sont toujours de mauvais élèves. Les enseignants, de leur côté, doivent abandonner leur rôle traditionnel pour se transformer en «animateurs», en «gestionnaires» ou même en «cadres administratifs» chargés d'administrer des modules d'enseignement préparés à l'avance. En bout de ligne, on peut même se passer des enseignants dans la mesure où aucune compétence spéciale n'est requise pour ce genre de tâches. 1, record 3, French, - formation%20bas%C3%A9e%20sur%20les%20comp%C3%A9tences%20attendues

El principio fundamental de la educación basada en el rendimiento es que las decisiones del programa de estudios y de la instrucción deberán basarse en las competencias que se desee que los alumnos demuestren al finalizar su educación formal. Los resultados buscados incluyen no sólo las calificaciones o puntuaciones en los reportes o pruebas, sino en el rendimiento que demuestren los alumnos, sus habilidades en la vida cotidiana, tales como planificar y diseñar, crear y producir, liderazgo y organización. 2, record 3, Spanish, - educaci%C3%B3n%20basada%20en%20la%20competencia
