Application Skills

The PLSystem is designed to link learning mastery with skill and application development. During the instructional design phase, the teacher can determine what level of knowledge mastery is prerequisite for a particular application assignment. This can range from no prior knowledge to a rather extensive mastery of a knowledge base. The goal is to bring students to a high level of success, which fuels their intrinsic motivation to learn. Combining learning mastery with skill development is what truly sets the PLSystem apart from most online learning systems.

Skill Development

More than Recall - Complex Thinking Skills

The PLSystem's ability to transfer a knowledge base at a very high level enables a person to engage in higher order thinking more effectively. The ability to apply knowledge to a new situation, or solve a problem, is greatly enhanced by having sufficient knowledge to draw upon. Combining or making novel connections with your prior knowledge creates new knowledge. The PLSystem enhances higher order thinking skills by ensuring the lower end of Bloom's taxonomy (comprehension and understanding) is effectively accomplished.
