Taking competencies to the next level Marie-Eve Lévesque, University of Montreal
University of Montreal • Montréal, Québec, Canada • 45 000 students • 5 000teachers • 16 faculties and schools • 2 associateduniversities • Moodle at UdeM • 6 developers • 3 support technicians (help line)
Competencies in Moodle • Competencyframeworks, learning plans and tools to manage and assesscompetencies • Added in Moodle 3.1, withsomedevelopmentfromouruniversity • 2 levels : • User competencies (learning plan) • Appreciator (new rolewithpermissions for cohorts) • Course competencies • Teacher • Pseudo Activity competencies • Automatic course or user competencyachievement • No assessment at the activitylevel • Whatwewanted to achieve : the nextlevel!
How we did it : 2 new plugins • The code in Moodle : • competency -> main classes • admin/tool/lp -> main pages to manage and assess competencies • report/competency -> report for a student in a course • Our plugins : • admin/tool/cmcompetency -> main classes and pages + 1 DB table • report/cmcompetency -> assessment page and report for a student

Demo - Student • View the competencies assessments • (tool/cmcompetency)
How we improved it : additional reports • Our “Monitoring of learning plans” (lpmonitoring) plugin provides some additional reports to view and assess user competencies. • In our case, it is used by an appreciator (learning plan manager). • It is publicly available and already used on many Moodle sites. • https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=report_lpmonitoring • We improved it to view activity competencies in addition to course competencies. • This part is not public for the moment as it requires the 2 cmcompetency plugins.
