Definition

  • At its core, the educational process serves as the means by which individuals develop themselves intellectually, emotionally, psychologically, philosophically, and artistically. It is widely agreed that there should be a minimum level of competency expected on a wide range of subject matter as a base to build on; minimum competencies are the expectations of achievement for each student at specified levels of learning.
