Richard Spencer’s Learning Unit
• A “learning unit number” is like a SKU... It can be a course; single lecture in a course; 15 minute student presentation in a course, participation in community service, any activity that the student wants to include on a formal or co-curricular transcript. We can also have: learning results, learning plans, learning resources. (from Richard Spencer’s presentation)
