Why teachers use it
A competence-based lesson plan has many parts: competences, learning outcomes, teaching and learning activities, assessment. Getting all of them right, aligned to the syllabus, for several classes a week is a heavy load. Starting from a complete, aligned draft lets you spend your time on what only you can do: shaping the lesson for the learners in front of you.
