Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The research, "Competency-Based vs. Traditional Education: An Analysis in Secondary Civic and Ethical Education," examines the differences between two teaching methods regarding the instruction of values and citizenship in secondary education. The traditional methodology focuses on the dissemination of theoretical knowledge and the memorization of information, while the competency-based approach emphasizes the acquisition of practical skills, attitudes, and values useful in real-life situations. In the field of civic and ethical education, the traditional model can be restricted to the presentation of abstract ideas, while the competency-based approach encourages engagement, critical analysis, and the ability to make sound decisions. The document emphasizes that competency-based education fosters a closer connection between acquired knowledge and daily life, preparing students to more effectively address social and ethical problems. However, it also mentions the drawbacks of its implementation, such as the need for teacher training and the availability of appropriate resources.
