Student Learning Outcomes are the knowledge, skills, and abilities a student should
be expected to achieve as the result of a specific educational experience, such as
a course or program.
The most commonly used resource for developing educational outcomes is Bloom's Taxonomy.
Originally produced in 1956, it was updated in 2001. Perusing the information can
be very helpful for faculty looking to create or revise learning outcomes for their
courses or programs.
The Degree Requirements listed in LCC's Academic Catalog are a rich source of learning outcomes for the respective
degree or certificate. Exploring planners beyond your own can be a valuable exercise,
offering fresh perspectives and inspiring new ideas.
Another potential resource for LCC faculty developing student learning outcomes is
the rubrics developed for each Global Skill: Communication, Critical Thinking, Teamwork,
and Quantitative Literacy. The current Global Skills rubrics are available on the
Global Skills webpage.
