Learning outcomes and constructive alignment – the fundamentals of Programme/Module design Online
This workshop is open to colleagues from QMU and our collaborative partners.
Participants will be asked to complete ~30 mins of asynchronous preparatory work prior to joining the workshop.
We will be using cameras, microphones and breakout rooms during the session, so you may prefer to join us from a quiet space if this is possible for you.
Workshop Learning Objectives:
By the end of this training you should be able to:
1. Outline key concepts associated with Outcomes Based Education (OBE)
2. List advantages of using an OBE approach for staff, students and Quality Assurance (QA) bodies
3. Summarise the difference between a ‘learning outcome’ and a ‘learning objective’ (and recognise other relevant terminology)
4. Explain the terms ‘constructive alignment’ and ‘blueprinting’
