Articulating Learning Outcomes

Global learning outcomes are the desired attitudes and things students should know and be able to do as effective citizens and workers in a global environment. Specifying learning outcomes provides the crucial foundation for an institution to determine whether the curriculum and other programs provide students with the appropriate opportunities to achieve these outcomes.
