MACM Student Learning Outcomes<\/h2>\n
(v.2011)<\/span><\/pre>\n
Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) express the intended aim and progress for a student\u2019s learning adventure. Some SLOs are connected to a degree and five are shared program\u00a0outcomes\u00a0for all degrees. These objectives appear variously in course syllabi as specific goals appropriate to the course.<\/p>\n
When you add artifacts to your Portfolio, connect artifacts specifically to one or more of these Outcomes. \u00a0Name the Outcome and provide a rationale in your reflections on the artifact. More information about the overarching practices\u00a0(S, W, C, M) that inform these outcomes can be found\u00a0here.<\/a><\/p>\n
