Weaving CLOs into Course Design: A Practical Workshop

Workshop Description: In this workshop, participants will delve into the intricacies of course learning outcomes (CLOs). We’ll explore how to extend and break down CLOs, ensuring they are seamlessly integrated into our courses. Specifically, we’ll differentiate between overall course goals, CLOs, and module outcomes. Participants will actively engage in developing module outcomes using learning taxonomies. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have practical strategies to enhance their teaching and align it with desired learning outcomes.
