Students have different learning styles and preferences to help them learn and understand course material. Current course structures in education create restrictions on how a class session can be designed, which makes it difficult, if not impossible, to create a course that encompasses all of these students needs because of the complexity of accounting for each of these differences. To help overcome this intricacy, this research attempts to understand how competency-based courses related to application development and programming can utilize a more personalized approach. This was explored by using an application called eAsel. To understand competency and personalization, interviews were conducted with university instructors and students to understand how students learn, how teaching is handled in the classroom, and how programming course within the college could transition to implement a personalized course flow in eAsel. During these interviews, the participants were able to interact with eAsel through a guided walkthrough. Observations of students were also conducted in a two-hundred level programming course as well as during common tutoring hours hosted by the college to test eAsels student activity record page which helps to score student understandings of course competencies based on a five-point scale.Overall, at the conclusion of this research study, there were positive comments toward implementing the application into the classroom for programming courses in the College of IST. Through eAsel, both professors and students are able to more easily understand the structure of the course, identify resources that they can use to learn the material they are still having a difficult time understanding, and demonstrate how well students understand course material through a rating system. By being able to assess students in real-time, both the students and professors can have faster feedback of how students can improve to master a certain competency. However, there are also challenges identified within eAsel. For instance, class size can affect the efficiency of recording data and the ability to individually communicate with each student to build a personal connection. The effectiveness of the application also varies based on how it is implemented in the classroom, including how many and which resources are available to students, how much time is devoted to the application in and out of the classroom, and how professors are able to motivate students to reach mastery of each course competency. Although eAsel can be implemented into these classes, there are still some looming questions surrounding what this would look like within the classroom and how it would affect the current course structure. These questions must be answered before implementation can take place.

Intended as a toolkit for academic administrators, faculty andresearchers to deal effectively with the rapid emergence ofcompetency-based learning models across higher education, thisvolume provides practical advice and proven techniques forimplementing and evaluating these models. Drawing from a recentNational Postsecondary Education Cooperative project that examineddata and policy implications across public and private institutionsas well as an industrial setting, readers will find an inventory ofstrong practices to utilize in evaluating competency-basedinitiatives. Issues discussed include practical concerns ofmeasuring and reporting competency; the critical connectionsbetween the skills employers seek and student preparation for them;the connections between distance education, accrediation, andcompetencies; and the difficult procedure of setting appropriatepassing standards for assessments. With a bibliography oncompetency literature and a framework for creating competencymodels, this volume is an invaluable tool to researchers andpractitioners alike. This is the 110th issue of the Jossey-Bass series NewDirections for Institutional Research.
