Good Teaching and the Case for Module-Level Outcomes

Posted by | Start the discussion

Presenters: Casey Twining and Samm Erickson.

Summary

All instructors are familiar with Course Outcomes. These communicate goals for an entire course. Outcomes for smaller units in a class – Module-Level Outcomes – can do the same thing for portions of each class. Come to this session – the start of a longer series – to really understand how module-level outcomes (MLOs) support teaching and learning – for teachers and instructors. We’ll investigate how MLOs can shape curriculum and assessment choices and we’ll get excited about how they can help instructors envision a course more completely.

PCC offers this limited open forum as an extension of the respectful, well-reasoned discourse we expect in our classroom discussions. As such, we welcome all viewpoints, but monitor comments to be sure they stick to the topic and contribute to the conversation. We will remove them if they contain or link to abusive material, personal attacks, profanity, off-topic items, or spam. This is the same behavior we require in our hallways and classrooms. Our online spaces are no different.
