College transcripts need to better reflect each learner’s unique path argues Brian Peddle, founder and CEO of Motivis Learning. According to Peddle, an ideal transcript should provide insight into a learner’s experiences, including knowledge acquired and applied, skills mastered and demonstrated, and projects completed. He points to technologies that could support this, such as blockchain, which provides a secure data record that learners can use throughout their educational experiences. More detailed and customizable transcripts would also allow employers to assess job applicants more accurately, based on demonstrated skills.
