Activity 5: Competence Builder and Additional Practice
What is a Competence Builder?
Competence Builders are a new interactive community feature tied to the Modules in the Guided Learning Tool. Look in the last Activity of most GLT Modules for "Competence Builders"--activities which will help you think "outside the box" (or "outside the e-text," as the case may be) regarding your assessment content.
Why should you participate in Competence Builders?
Competence Builders are designed to give you experience with the many Learning Resources available to you (website links, on-line labs, etc) Competence Builders give you a "real-world" application for the content you are learning for the assessment. Competence Builders get you in touch with other students studying for the assessment and the chance to interact.
So get involved and have a fun time with these new activities!
