Program Outcome

Program Outcome

Student learning program is a strategic measure used by accreditation commission of particular learning institution to determine the significance of structured learning program for the benefit of students. The program provides the so called ‘end result’ of the whole learning period in regard to the expectation of the student. According Mika (2009), every lesion and the ultimate grade acquired in the study should have a typical concept of expected results and a significant importance in the life of the student. There a two types of student learning outcomes: Direct measures and indirect measure

The direct measure includes the implementation of the program whereby the learning structure accredited by the commission is enforced with proper evaluation and a specific time limit. After the implementation, there are the indirect identification measures where the program is assessed in regard to the expectation of the course fulfilment and the job requirements in the world market. The third stage involves indirect measures which are the literal strategies to be achieved before the completion of the program. At the end of the program, you need to collect and asses the result to ascertain the magnitude of effort and implication in the job market. The result will lead you the dissemination and the reflection on the result to lay a baseline of association and incorporation in the society. Finally, one is expected to think of program adjustment and improvement to make it better .

Discussion

The program will be accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science in regard to Higher Educations Board. Since the program is not online based, there will be no policies to govern the operation of the program. The academic standards of the curriculum will be determined by the credibility of the teaching staff and implementation of the program. The program outcome will be focused in research and innovation. For accountability, the teaching staffs will be assessed before and after the semester to ensure the Accreditation standards are met.

Hello Carzetta,

Thank you for your timely submission of this installment of your course project. In the first week of the term, you declared a program that you would propose as the Dean of a higher learning institution that has allowed you to work through a series of steps toward authoring a new program proposal.

For some, the abstract nature of this assignment might seem somewhat out of character. After all, how can someone that might have little or no experience in authoring a new program proposal actually learn by moving through the steps? Well, it is because we had guidance from our text and related resources that helped to guide us through the approach. We also had the benefit of a Social Media area within the class that allowed us to see how our classmates were working through the process, and we shared in the learning experience through our own posts. This is, by the way, very similar to what we encounter in our work – a problem-based situation where something needs to be done, and the response is to gather detail on best practices and work through the process with available guidance from others. Using the assigned scoring rubric as a guide, the following comments are offered in response to my appraisal of your submission:

Program Outcomes: I found that your submission included some content for both of the elements called for in the assignment, as referenced in the instructions and corresponding rubric. I believe that your proposed program for Biomedical Science might be appropriate for this exercise.

List of Courses: For this part of your proposal, you were to create a chart or table that listed the individual courses and offered added detail such as a course identifier and credit hrs. What courses that were to be included was left entirely up to you, but they should correspond tightly with the variables about the program that you have defined in previous installments in relation to established industry standards. I found that your response addressed and applied some of these expectations, but the table that you constructed was not complete.

Spelling, Grammar & APA Style: Applying proper APA stylistics in your graduate work is a valued outcome, and so this is a good opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of this literary skill. Your paper did not adhere to APA stylistics, and I encourage you to work with the KU Writing Center to address this expectation.

Total Score: 75/100 points

Thank you for your effort in completing this assignment. If you have any questions regarding this appraisal, or any other aspect of the course, you are most welcome to contact me.

Best,

Jeff
