The document provides an overview of Outcome Based Education (OBE), including:
- OBE focuses on what students should be able to do after completing their education rather than focusing on teaching. It is learner-centered rather than teacher-centered.
- Key components of OBE include program outcomes that describe what students will be able to do after graduation, course outcomes for individual courses, and assessment methods to measure student achievement of outcomes.
- Benefits of OBE include better preparing students for the workforce, improving the learning process, and producing more innovative graduates with important professional skills. OBE also leads to better recognition of education programs internationally.
The document discusses approaches to adopting an outcome-based education (OBE) curriculum. It outlines the key goals and philosophical assumptions of OBE, which include ensuring all learners can succeed and developing their talents. The document also describes characteristics of OBE curricula, such as having program objectives, outcomes, and performance indicators that are outcome-driven and assessed. It provides examples of OBE approaches teachers can take, such as writing good learning outcomes and familiarizing different curriculum models, as well as changing assessment methods to focus on outcomes over content.
This document discusses Programme Learning Outcomes (PLOs) and Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs). PLOs describe the knowledge, skills, and values students will demonstrate after completing a program. CLOs state what students will learn in a specific course. PLOs and CLOs should be measurable, student-focused, and aligned with instruction and assessment. They provide guidance for students on program and course expectations and help faculty design learning experiences and assessments. PLOs are assessed using evidence from CLO assessments to evaluate student learning at the program level.

Introducing the PASS program: Pre-arrival success strategies for studentsLearningandTeaching
PASS (Pre-Arrival Success Strategies) is a free online course for students who will be studying with the International College of Manitoba (ICM) in subsequent terms. The course is designed for students who wish to get a head start on their studies. The course is led by ICM alumni who mentor prospective students in navigating the complexities of their new education system.
Units are delivered over five weeks and cover a variety of topics, including overviewing the learning management system (Moodle), connecting students with their future classmates, understanding essential elements of course outlines, planning for weekly and term schedules, introducing concepts of academic integrity, and more. Students have flexibility in choosing which units they wish to complete as they accumulate points for each assessment completed - students who complete various achievements earn various rewards.
In these slides, Robert Daudet reviews the course content, shares lessons learned from its first iteration, and reveals what's next for the course.

The document provides guidance on constructing intended learning outcomes at the course level (CILOs). It defines CILOs as describing the specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes students are expected to develop by the end of a course. Guidelines are given for writing effective CILO statements, such as using active verbs to describe observable performances, focusing on significant and essential learnings, and reflecting the three learning domains of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills. Bloom's Taxonomy is referenced as a tool to help classify learning objectives according to cognitive level. Examples of well-written CILO statements are also provided.
The Rutgers University Graduate School of Education underwent a process to reform its 11 separate EdD programs into a single interdisciplinary program with 4 concentrations. This involved gathering input, designing the new structure and curriculum, implementing changes, and continuing efforts to improve and institutionalize the new program. There was resistance during this multi-year process due to concerns about needed changes, centralization of programs, and defining requirements. Data was used to make the case for reforms and build consensus, and communicating accomplishments helped gain further faculty buy-in for the consolidated EdD program.
Flexible CPD (FLEX) is a practice-based academic CPD program at MMU tailored to individual priorities and aspirations. Participants select 5 CPD activities per year and capture their development in an academic portfolio. This allows them to gain credits, meet CPD requirements, and work towards qualifications and professional recognition. The portfolio is intended to help participants reflect on and improve their teaching and research practices through collaborative learning and community support.

Lesson 3.3 - Curriculum Mapping and Curriculum Quality Audit.pptxGRIMALDOKrizzaF
This document provides information on curriculum mapping and curriculum quality audit. It defines curriculum mapping as a process of designing, refining, upgrading and reviewing the curriculum to ensure alignment of learning outcomes, content, and assessments. Benefits of curriculum mapping include addressing gaps or repetitions in the curriculum and connecting all initiatives from instruction to assessment. The process of curriculum mapping involves creating a matrix and populating it with outcomes, content, resources, teaching methods, and assessments. Curriculum quality audit ensures alignment with established standards and identifies gaps compared to standards. Sample curriculum maps and standards that can be used for quality audits are discussed.

6. What is a Residential Curriculum?
Residential Curriculum is a framework developed to create
intentional learning within residence halls in a structured
and sequenced manner.
The main question addressed by the residential curriculum
is, “What do we want students to learn as a result of living
on campus at Cal Poly - San Luis Obispo?”
7. 10 Essential Elements of a Residential
Curriculum:
1. Directly connected to your institution's mission (archaeological dig)
2. Learning outcomes are derived from a defined educational priority.
3. Based on research and developmental theory – not just our intuition.
4. Learning outcomes drive development of educational
strategies (mapping).
5. Programs may be one type of strategy – but are not the only one.
6. Student staff play key roles but are not the educational experts.
7. Represents sequenced learning (by-month and by-year).
8. Stakeholders are identified and involved.
9. Plan is developed through review process that includes feedback,
critique, and transparency.
10. Assessment is essential for measuring the achievement of the learning
outcomes and can be used to test the effectiveness and efficiency of strategies
for program review and accountability.

20. What We Learned
• Build support from your supervisory team for a new vision.
• Share your vision widely with external presenters. Explain
how this training is different and why you’re taking a curricular
approach. Be involved in developing the content for these
sessions.
• Redeveloping training is an enormous undertaking; staff
accordingly. Your staff will be keenly aware of the sessions
that were not modified from previous years.
• Develop your assessment questions to answer the questions
you wanted to know during this process.
• Communicate the importance of following the lesson plans to
all presenters. This works best when everyone at all levels is
onboard.

The ACUHO-I online course "Developing and Refining a Resident Assistant Training Program" helps create programs that focus on thought-provoking and engaging activities. We had the training committee go through the training before approaching training. The training utilizes learning tools such as gap/decision analyses, approaching training schedules thoughtfully, developing changes, and marketing proposals to our stakeholders.
We then decided to do the following with training:
Sequence Learning (lessons)
Increase Consistency in Messaging
Lesson Plans/Sketches
Reducing Workload for professional and student staff
Online Learning Modules
Sketches allowed any staff member to pick up
Create interactive learning experiences for Residential Curriculum
Create an interactive/training residential curriculum document for students

Ongoing assessment Lessons learned from the following
Gathering Feedback
100 of the 120 students took a 4 question survey
3 things you learned (wordle Above)
What would you change
Make it one night
Redundant sessions
Balance activities for introverts and extroverts
Gave examples of more learn by doing opportunities, such as having a “study area” where advisors can go over administrative work, quiet time, and also work on bulletin boards, and a “mock incident” during community walks
Should advisors participate in something like this in the future? 100% Said yes
Did you spend the night? Why/Why Not?
Managing Departmental Change
Training was reduced from 9 days to 7, which gave us the opportunity to prioritize learning further as well as maintain our interactive approach
Online modules
Goal is to create more learning modules students can complete before training
Interactive dialogue spaces before training and throughout the academic year
New RAs mentioned they wanted breakfast and were critical of the sessions
Returners wanted a craft center for secret buddies
New RAs felt like they learned how to deal with residents and program
Returners were more likely to comment on people and the new RAs rather than mentioning a technique they learned
Returning and continuing RAs almost unanimously felt training met their expectations while it was at 88% for 1st time RAs
Most Useful Parts of Training: Behind Closed Doors, Blueprint, working with Returners, Policy Discussions
Most Enjoyable: Staff Bonding, Camp Tenaya, Behind Closed Doors, and Coffee House
They tended to be more positive about CSD/LLC presentations which could be a result of that being much improved the past year or the returners having connections with those presenting so they felt more positive about it.
93% of returners of students stated that overall training had improved either slightly or significantly
The overwhelming majority of students stated it met their expectations
