  3. Creating a Successful Learning Outcome
  4. If a student asks “what will I be able to do when I finish your program”…you could say
  5. AUDIENCE, BEHAVIOR, CONDITION, DEGREE, METHOD As a result of participation in the Alcohol Edu on-line course, students will be able to provide 3 examples of what to do to avoid a situation where someone is tempted to drive after drinking as demonstrated by the Alcohol Edu exam.

  6. AUDIENCE, BEHAVIOR, CONDITION, DEGREE, METHOD As a result of attending a group counseling session in the Office of The Dean of Students, all participantswill be able to communicate the key stages of the bereavement process to others who have experienced the same type of loss, and provide two examples of strategies that helped them through the stage of bereavementas evidenced by general observation during the session.
  7. Use Action Verbs (Bloom’s Taxonomy)
  8. SLOs Should Be SMART Specific Measurable and Meaningful Achievable Realistic Time-bound
  9. Mapping Suggestions
  10. Mapping Your Student Learning Outcomes Don’t panic. This is something few of us have done before, so expect things to change/evolve over time. And remember, you don’t have to assess every SLO this year. There is plenty of time for us to work through this process. In recording your SLOs on your worksheets, begin by not including the year in which you intend to assess the outcome. You will only need to select 3 or 4 learning outcomes from among ALL of them you are mapping to assess so save the date for last. You can enter the date you want to begin the assessment after the SLOs have been created. If you have a SLO that you are already collecting data on, it should be one of them you assess for 2012. Selecting it now will allow you more time to develop SLOs for your programs and become more familiar with not only how to write them, but how to assess them. If you can’t assess the outcome, don’t include it on your worksheet.
  11. Mapping Your Student Learning Outcomes The sum of all your student learning outcomes should map back to the intended program learning outcomes. However, not every SLO will have every intended program outcome present.
  12. Mapping Your Student Learning Outcomes Not every SLO has to be listed as being assessed in 2012. The following example shows how outcomes will be assessed over the period of 2years. The third SLO will be assessed, but they don’t know when. This makes the assessment both manageable and sustainable since you are going to want to track the success of the outcomes over a period of time.
  13. Mapping Your Student Learning Outcomes Remember, for every “X” you have placed in a student learning outcome, you will be responsible for being able to assess it at one time or another. For each potential SLO, you need to ask yourself “can the learning be measured?” If it can’t, then don’t include the SLO. Over time, assessment efforts build a body of evidence to improve programs. You can refer to the PowerPoint presentation by Campuslabs (Student Voice) for more detail on creating Student Learning Outcomes.
