Question

In the teaching-learning process, "learning outcomes" refer to :

• A. Teaching methods used
• B. Content of the syllabus
• C. What learners are expected to achieve
• D. Examination pattern

Answer 1

Answer:

C. What learners are expected to achieve

• Learning outcomes are statements that describe the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that students should possess and be able to demonstrate upon completion of a learning experience.

• Focus on the Learner: Unlike a syllabus, which lists topics, outcomes focus on the student's behavior.

• Measurability: A good learning outcome is observable. For example, instead of saying "The student will know the water cycle," an outcome would be "The student will be able to diagram and explain the water cycle."

• Guidance: Outcomes act as a North Star for both the teacher (to pick methods) and the student (to understand the goal).
