Clear, measurable learning outcomes are the foundation of effective teaching, learning, and assessment. In this module, you will explore how to design outcomes using the SMART framework—ensuring they are Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. You will also learn how to align outcomes with rubrics so that assessment tasks accurately reflect the intended skills and knowledge.
Building on this, the module guides you through writing rubrics with clear criteria, performance indicators, and performance descriptions that distinguish levels of achievement. By the end, you will be equipped with practical tools to create transparent, fair, and consistent assessments that support both teaching effectiveness and student success.
The learning objectives of this lesson include:
- Write clear, assessable learning objectives using measurable language.
- Design Rubrics that align directly with learning outcomes.
- Ensure assessments measure what they are intended to measure.
