 Introduction
• The Design phase of a typical curriculum
development process (Analysis, Design,
Development, Implementation, Evaluation) is
largely concerned with developing clear learning
outcomes and objectives.

• It is important to recognize during this phase

that there is a direct relationship between
objectives and students assessments.
7
 Introduction
Set teaching content and skill objectives that
are based on student and employer needs
and the institutional mission statement
• Set student learning outcomes
• Design learning activities  teaching
methods
• Evaluate results  assessment
8
 Learning Outcome are
• Learning outcomes are broad goals that that
describe what the
– learners are supposed to know or be able to
do and may be based upon:
• the needs of the learner
• the needs of society
• what the learner should know
about a particular subject
9
 Learning Outcome are
• What a STUDENT should learn as a result of a
period of specified and supported study.

• The ACHIEVEMENTS of the learner rather then

the intentions of the teacher.

10
 Learning Outcome are
• Formal statements that articulate:
• What students are able to do after
instruction

• Why students need to do this

11
 Learning Outcome are
• Are concerned with the learning of the student
PERFORMANCE

• What the student will be able to do

• What the student will know and do
• What the student will understand and do

• Must be measurable or observable

12
 Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes begin with the end in mind.
A learning outcome, according to Mager, has 3
parts:
1. A measurable verb
2. The important condition (if any) under which the
performance is to occur and
3. The criterion of acceptable performance.
13
 Objectives vs. Outcomes
• The distinction between learning outcomes and
learning objectives is not universally
recognized.

• Many instructors may find that the term

‘learning outcomes’ describes what they have
already understood by the term ‘learning
14 objectives.’

15
 Objectives vs. Outcomes
• Learning objectives, for example, may outline
the material the instructor intends to cover or the
disciplinary questions the class will address.

• By contrast, learning outcomes should focus on

what the student should know and realistically be
able to do by the end of an assignment, activity,
class, or course
16
 Objectives vs. Outcomes
• learning outcomes, mean focusing on the
application and integration of the course
content from the perspective of the
student.

• learning outcomes can more explicitly

and directly address expectations for
17
student learning.

Student C
Divide into student groups A, B, and C. Each group will
answer these 3 questions and present their answers.
1. What kind of knowledge is required?
2. What teaching methods are required?
3. What assessment methods are required?

19
 Objectives are…
The primary building blocks of good curriculum
design:
They support the learning outcome in that each is a small step in
arriving
at what the learner is supposed to know or be able to do.
Objectives 
1. Define specific outcomes or competencies to be achieved
in
terms of skills, content mastery, attitudes, or values
2. Form the basis upon which to select or design instruction
materials, content, or techniques
3. Provide the basis for determining or assessing when the instruction
purpose has been accomplished
4. Provide a framework within which a learner can organize his
 The importance of LOs
• It builds evidence for accountability,
accreditation and improvement.

– Show evidence of how well our

students learn.

– Use evidence for continuous

improvement.

21
 The importance of LOs
• Know what you are doing

• Know why you are doing it

• Know what students are learning as a result

• Changing because of that information

22
 The importance of LOs
• Shifting from:
• Teaching to learning

• Teaching effectiveness to learning results

• Private affair to community property

teaching.
28
 Characteristics of Good
Learning Outcomes

1. Measurable/Assessable
2. Clear to the student & instructor
3. Integrated, developmental, transferable

 OBE  Outcome-Based Education

Outcome-based education is a method of

teaching that focuses on what students can
actually do after they are taught.
All curriculum and teaching decisions are
made based on how best to facilitate the
desired outcome.
This leads to a planning process in reverse of
traditional educational planning.
The desired outcome is selected first and the
curriculum is created to support the intended
30 outcome.

 Characteristics of a Graduate Are:
Holders of a bachelor degree should have demonstrated:

Knowledge of a comprehensive, coherent and systematic body of

knowledge in a field of enquiry;

The ability to investigate complex problems and develop creative

solutions with limited guidance;

The ability to use appropriate statistical techniques in the analysis and

resolution of complex issues, and select and use the most appropriate
mechanisms for communicating the results to a variety of audiences;

Capacity to provide leadership and willingness to cooperate fully with

others in joint projects and initiatives;

In the case of a professional program the full range of knowledge and

33 skill required for effective practice in the profession concerned.
 Learning Outcomes….
 be written in the future tense
 identify important learning requirements
 be achievable and assessable
 use clear language easily understandable to students
When writing outcomes, it may be useful to use the
following expression: At the end of this program
or course the student should be able to…….
Then follow with a verb. Useful verbs are:
Analyse; appraise; apply; calculate; choose;
compare; contrast; create; criticise; demonstrate;
derive; describe; design; develop; differentiate;
discuss; explain; evaluate; extrapolate; formulate;
identify; list; measure; name; plan; plot; postulate;
predict; present; propose; recall; recognise; use;
34 utilise; and WRITE
 Well written L.O. are….

Use a verb that indicates what the learner is

expected to be able to do at the end of the
period of learning; measurable or observable.

Word(s) that indicate on what or with what the

learner is acting. If the outcome is about
skills then the word(s) may describe the
way the skill is performed.

Word(s) that indicate the nature (in context

or in terms of standard) of the
performance required as evidence that the
35
learning was achieved.
 A good L.O.
is….

 Active  it describes what students can do

 Attractive  students want to achieve it
 Comprehensible  students know what it
means
 Appropriate  to the student’s current
goals and career plans
 Attainable  most students will mostly
meet it, with due effort
36
 A Good L.O. is ….
 Assessable  we can verify if it has
been achieved
 Visible  observable and stated in
the course booklet and on the Webb

Good learning outcomes are

scaffolding on which you
and your students build their
studies and their learning
37
 Things to avoid…

Avoid learning outcomes which are too broad in scope,

such as ‘Recall the fundamental concepts of Structural, Mechanical
and Electrical Engineering.’

Avoid learning outcomes which are too narrow in scope,

such as ‘State the six categories in Bloom’s Taxonomy.’

Avoid overloading your modules with too much ‘content’;

knowledge and understanding outcomes emphasize what your
students will be able to comprehend and explain, but this isn’t as
important as being able to use the information through
application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation.

For each of the domains of learning shown below indicate:
• The knowledge or skill the program is intended to develop
and the level of that knowledge and skill. (as a guide see
general descriptions of knowledge and skills in the National
Qualifications Framework for the qualification level of this
program;
• The teaching strategies to be used in courses in the
program to develop that knowledge and those skills. (This
should be a general description of the approaches taken
throughout the program but if particular responsibility is to be
assigned to certain courses this should be indicated.);
• The methods of student assessment to be used in
courses in the program to evaluate learning
46 outcomes in the domain concerned.
