General Assessment Guidelines
Writing S.M.A.R.T. SLO’s/ASO’s
Specific – Clear, definite terms describing the abilities, knowledge, values,
attitudes and performance desired.
Measurable – Have measurable outcomes and clearly state the target or criteria
for success.
Achievable – Set your targets and criteria for success at the appropriate level so it
can be achieved.
Realistic – Make sure the outcome is practical and can be achieved in a
reasonable time frame.
Timely – Set a timeline for completion of the outcomes.
Course Objectives vs Learning Outcomes
Course Objectives are key elements that must be taught each time the course is
taught. This should clearly outline in the course outline of record and refers to
the specific content that must be covered in a course.
Learning Outcomes are specific Institutional Competencies or Institutional
Student Learning Outcomes (ISLO’s) developed as a result of completing the
course objectives.
