Mastery Transcript Consortium
Mastery Transcript Consortium is a coalition of forward-looking schools that believe all children are capable of learning and that it's our job as educators to design systems that ensure they do.
They also see traditional grading systems as a barrier to learning, which is why they're partnering with 1EdTech to create open badges and comprehensive learner records to help learners show what they know and can do outside of those traditional systems.
Mastery Transcript Consortium believes by showing it can work, more educators and lawmakers will be ready to embrace it.
