  • LEARNING OUTCOMES AND LEARNING DOMAINS

  • What is the MQF?MQF* Para 1

    MQF is an instrument that develops and classifies qualifications based on a set of criteria that is approved nationally and at par with international practices, and which clarifies the earned academic levels, learning outcomes of study areas and credit system based on student academic load.

  • LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • What are Learning Outcomes?Learning outcomes are statements of what students know and can do as a result of their respective courses of studyCouncils for Higher Education Accredition Board of Directors, USA 2002

    ii.A learning outcome is a statement of what a learner is expected to know, understand or be able to do as a result of a learning process. Centre for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning, The Universty of Western Australia, 2004.

  • Learning outcomes are statements that explain what students should know, understand and can do upon the completion of a period of study. Learning outcomes are references for standard and quality as well as for the development of curriculum in terms of teaching and learning, the determination of credits and the assessment of students. In MQF, learning outcomes are asserted in three categories: (i) levels of qualification; (ii) fields of study; and (iii) programme. (MQF,2011)What are Learning Outcomes?

  • Why are learning outcomes important?They are essential because they:

    define the type and depth of learning, students are expected to achieveprovide an objective benchmark for formative, summative, and prior learning assessmentclearly communicate expectations to learnersclearly communicate graduates skills to the stakeholdersdefine coherent units of learning that can be further subdivided or modularized for classroom or for other delivery modes.guide and organize the instructor and the learner.

  • Knowledge Practical Skills Thinking and scientific skillsCommunication skillsSocial skills, teamwork and responsibilityValues, ethics, moral and professionalism Information management and lifelong learning skillsManagerial and entrepreneurial skills Leadership skills

  • Different Levels of Learning OutcomesProgramme Educational Objectives (PEO)Programme Outcomes (PO) Course Outcomes (CO) Weekly/Topic Outcomes Upon graduationUpon course completion Upon weekly/topic completion Few years after Graduation 4 to 5 years Shahrin Mohamed, 2007

  • Programme Objectives (PEO)Attributes of graduates 3 to 5 years after graduation

    Example of PEO for Diploma in TextileA textile technologist with good understanding of fundamental scientific and technological knowledge required for applications in textile related industries, the society and environment.A textile technologist with (positive) attitudes and ethics necessary in fulfilling his/her responsibilities towards the Creator, client and the society.A textile technologist who is able to adapt him/herself to the working environment. (how will the PO & curriculum ensure this?)

  • Programme Outcome (PO)What students will be able to do upon graduation

    Example of Programme Outcomes (PO) for Diploma in Textile1.Able to (apply and) acquire knowledge of textile technology (and applied sciences) fundamentals 2.Able to plan (scientific) experiments and interpret experimental data.3.Able to use the techniques, skills and textile equipments necessary for textile technology.4.Able to recognize and apply ethical standards of values, ethics and professionalism in their (job and career).5.Able to orally express and discuss scientific ideas effectively.

  • Course Outcome (CO)What students will be able to do upon the completion of a course

    Example of CO for the course: Introduction to Computers At the end of the course, the students will be able to:- Acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills about computer hardware and software.

    Equip themselves with step-by-step instructions on installation, maintenance and troubleshooting of computer system.

  • OBJECTIVES vs. OUTCOMES

    OBJECTIVES OUTCOMESObjectives describe WHAT A TEACHER NEEDS TO DO TO TEACH, AND WHAT NEEDS TO BE PLANNED TO TEACH.Outcomes describes WHATSTUDENTS SHOULD KNOW,UNDERSTAND AND CAN DO UPON THE COMPLETION OF A STUDY PERIOD.Objectives require the use of BASIC THINKING SKILLS SUCH AS KNOWLEDGE, COMPREHENSION, AND APPLICATION. Outcomes require the use of HIGHER THINKING SKILLS SUCH AS ANALYSIS, SYNTHESIS, AND EVALUATION (as described in Blooms Taxonomy) Objectives DO NOT NECESSARILY RESULT IN A PRODUCT. OFTEN, THEY ARE SYNTHESIZED OR COMBINED TO PRODUCE SOMETHINGTHAT MEASURES AN OUTCOME. Outcomes result in a PRODUCT THAT CAN BE MEASURED AND ASSESSED.

  • OBJECTIVES vs. OUTCOMES

    OBJECTIVES OUTCOMESe.g.(1.) - Economics students willunderstand the nature andfunctioning of the market systemEconomics students will be able toidentify the role of supply anddemand in a market economy and the necessary conditions to function well)

    e.g.(2.) - Management students willunderstand and use a variety ofquantitative analysis techniquesappropriate for businessManagement students willdemonstrate a basic knowledge ofcalculus, statistics, and otherquantitative tools necessary to solvereal-world problems)

  • LEARNING DOMAINS

  • Blooms TaxonomyBloom's Taxonomy is a classification of learning objectives within education.It refers to a classification of the different objectives that educators set for students (learning objectives).Bloom's Taxonomy divides educational objectives into three "domains" :Affective, Psychomotor, and Cognitive.

  • Blooms TaxonomyWithin the taxonomy learning at the higher levels is dependent on having attained prerequisite knowledge and skills at lower levels (Orlich, et al. 2004).

    A goal of Bloom's Taxonomy is to motivate educators to focus on all three domains, creating a more holistic form of education.
