Breakout Description
Student learning outcomes (SLOs) are a tool for curriculum development and program review. But simply writing SLOs is not of much value. Assessing the SLOs and using them to improve curriculum or programs is essential. How do you document that SLOs are present for each course? How do you know if the SLOs are well-written and do you care
on curriculum committee? Where does assessment play into the work of the curriculum
committee? This session will discuss some of the statewide patterns for
SLOs and assessment as a vehicle to develop and improve curriculum. The session will be interactive with opportunities for you to explore the curriculum committee's role when it comes to SLOs and assessment.
