Liberal Study
LOWER
Credits: 2
Term(s) Offered (Subject to Change) : Spring 1. Fall 1.
Course Description:
This course focuses on individualized Prior Learning Assessment (iPLA). The purpose of the course is to help you think through what you've learned and how you've gained that knowledge, and to translate that thinking into appropriate requests for college credit—appropriate in terms of college-level learning, and appropriate to your degree plan.
The course alternates and interweaves very concrete information (e.g., how Empire State College's prior learning assessment process works) and more abstract investigation (e.g., the nature of college-level learning). Each type of investigation informs the other. Not only will the course help you through the process of describing and documenting your learning, it will also help you understand the theory, conceptual framework, and different approaches to prior learning assessment. In this way, the course will add to your knowledge about learning and assessing learning.
