A Targeted Approach:
At TechBoston Academy we recognize that each of our students are unique individuals with unique ways of learning. Because we are committed to the idea that each and every student can learn and achieve, we focus on a learner-centered classroom model that recognizes that uniqueness as an attribute, not a liability.
Competency Based – In competency-based learning, each learner works toward competency and strives for mastery in defined domains of knowledge, skills, and dispositions.
Personalized, relevant, contextualized – Student learning experiences are leveraged to bridge gaps and meet learning challenges
Socially Embedded – Socially embedded learning is rooted in meaningful relationships with family, peers, qualified adults, and community members and is grounded in community and social interaction.
