Competency Standards--A Help or a Hindrance? An Australian Perspective.
Hager, Paul
Vocational Aspect of Education, v47 n2 p141-51 1995
Competency standards can hinder vocational education by being confused with curriculum documents, by being used too early in the teaching process, and by being used to assess superficial aspects of occupations. Standards can help when competence is conceptualized in an integrated approach that is used to guide curriculum development, teaching, and assessment. (SK)
