The document summarizes the process undertaken by the Linguistics & English Language Department at Brigham Young University to create learning outcomes for their TESOL master's degree program. It provides background on the increased emphasis on learning outcomes in higher education accreditation. Key aspects of developing outcomes are discussed, including having a limited number, using clear and measurable verbs, focusing on disciplinary and institutional missions, and selecting appropriate assessment measures.

Course design is viewed as the foundation of the curriculum development process that contributes to shaping and guiding the subsequent stages of teaching and assessment. The study is a qualitative case study that aims to explore the factors that have influential effects on the efficiency of the process of course
design from the perspectives of teachers who design their courses in a college context in Oman. It also aims to explore how these factors affect course design. The study draws on the philosophy and epistemology of the interpretive paradigm that shapes and guides its methodology, methods of data collection, and analysis of data. Findings of study show that there is a variety of factors that affect course design. These factors canbe categorized into two major categories, Student and Institutional Factors. Based on the findings of data analysis, the study offers a number of implications that are of value for those who are involved in the process of course design, particularly in the current context.
THE INFLUENCE OF PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING COMMUNITIES ON RESEARCH LITERACY AND ...ijejournal
The current study investigates two Problem-Based Learning (PBL) processes that were carried out in two different Online Learning Communities of 62 pre-service teachers who took a Research Literacy course as a part of their academic obligation. The first one was combined with the moderator based learning
scaffoldings (OLC+M), and the other one with the social based learning scaffoldings (OLC+S). The study seeks to map the differences between these two OLCs in terms of Achievement Goal Motivation and Research Literacy skills as a result of the PBL intervention, and the correlation between these aspects as is expressed in each group. The findings indicated that PBL had a significant positive effect on AGM in both groups, while only the OLC+S showed the significant outperforming in some of the Research Literacy skills, as well as the positive correlation between them and the Mastery Approach component of AGM. The discussion raises possible interpretations of theoretical and practical relationships between Research Literacy skills in the educational field and motivational factors among adult students, as they are expressed in online communication environments.
Teachers’ Organizational Commitment in Nazarbayev Intellectual School in Tara...Nagima Sarsenbayeva
This study concerned the personal- and environmental factors that affect the organizational commitment of teachers at Nazarbayev Intellectual School of Physics and Mathematics (NIS) in Taraz, Kazakhstan. Understanding the relations between these variables clarified their significance and effect on teachers’ organizational commitment (OC). The purpose of the study was to examine the level of OC at the study site and to analyze the personal and environmental factors influencing teacher organizational commitment. Relevant factors from the literature were synthesized into personal characteristics, personal- and environmental factors. An initial conceptual framework connecting the factors was developed. The three-component model consisting of affective-, normative- and continuance organizational commitment (Allen and Meyer, 1990) was adopted. Total sampling or census sampling was used in this study to select the participants. A total sampling of 135 teachers from the target school was used. The data was gathered using self-administered questionnaires in English, Russian and Kazakh languages with a response rate of 98 percent. This study adopted a causal-comparative quantitative methodology. Respondents rated the global organizational commitment above the midpoint of the scale. Average affective- and normative commitment were rated above the mid-point of the assessment scale while average continuous commitment was rated below it. All environmental- and 81 percent of the personal factors were rated as affecting global organizational commitment. None of the personal- or environmental factor showed a statistically significant correlation with OC. Overall, organizational commitment is fairly healthy at the study site. The study documented confirmed some of the findings from the literature reviewed.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
