Study Notes
Shifting Educational Focus
- Education has transitioned from a "pouring in" process (teacher-centered) to a "drawing out" process (student-centered)
- This shift emphasizes learning outcomes over content and subject matter
- The advent of technology has made the teacher a facilitator of knowledge instead of the sole source
Outcome-Based Education
- Places the student at the center of the process by focusing on Student Learning Outcomes (SLO)
- Encourages faculty responsibility for teaching, assessing program outcomes, and motivating student participation
- Provides data to guide teachers in making valid and continuous improvements in instruction and assessment activities
Implementing Outcome-Based Education
- Identify educational objectives for each subject or course
- List specific learning outcomes for each objective
- Categorize learning outcomes into cognitive (mental skills), psychomotor (physical skills), and affective (attitudes)
- Develop assessment procedures for measuring learning outcomes
Types of Outcomes
- Immediate Outcomes: Competencies or skills acquired upon completion of a course, subject, grade level, or program segment
- Deferred Outcomes: Ability to apply cognitive, psychomotor, and affective skills in various situations years after completing a degree program
Content & Performance Standards and Learning Competencies
-
- Performance Standards: Refer to pre-defined levels of proficiency in a particular subject or skill
-
- Learning Competencies: Describe the specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes students should acquire to meet performance standards
Learning Objectives and Learning Outcomes
- Learning Objectives: Statements defining the expected learning outcomes and goals for a course or subject
- Learning Outcomes: Specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) statements describing what students should be able to do after completing a course or program
