Supporting the Implementation of Externally Generated Learning Outcomes and Learning-Centered Curriculum Development: An Integrated Framework
Hubball, Harry; Gold, Neil; Mighty, Joy; Britnell, Judy
New Directions for Teaching and Learning, n112 p93-105 Win 2007
This article provides an overview of one Canadian provincially initiated curriculum reform effort in which several generic learning outcomes were established. It also presents a flexible, practical, and integrated framework for the development, implementation, and evaluation of program-level learning outcomes in undergraduate curricula contexts. When learning outcomes are externally mandated (or strongly encouraged), it is important that institutions have effective road maps for their implementation. Guiding principles and comprehensive strategies are provided here from critical lessons learned from the experience. (Contains 1 figure.)
