General Information on Bologna Process Road Map of Yasar University How to Write Programme and Learning Outcomes
• • Bologna Process intergovernmental European reform process aimed at establishing the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). Bologna Declaration was signed in 1999. Aims: – Promoting mobility – Mutual recognition of degrees and other higher education qualifications, – transparency (readable and comparable degrees organised in a three-cycle structure) – Life Long Learning – European cooperation in quality assurance.
47 countries are participating to Bologna P. (Turkey: since 2001) Countries Participating to Bologna Process Countries following BP and attending to Bologna Policy Forum meetings since 2009.
• Transparency Tools such as; – European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) – Diploma Supplement (DS) – Learning Agreement (LA) – Transcript of Records (ToR)

YU Programme Outcomes
SQF Revising of new Programme Outcomes by the Dep and approval by the Senate (2.12.2013-16.01.2014) 2. Revision of course syllabuses and updating the ECTS Course Catalogue Page (bologna.yasar.edu.tr) by the Departments (Send the updated info to [email protected]
) (16.01.2014-30.01.2014) 3. Approval of course syllabuses by Head of Dep. (01.02.2014-08.02.2014)
IMPORTANT NOTES
• Please add one general article to your Programme Outcomes for matching the UFND courses • YÖK has not yet announced the NQF and SQF in English. We will work on the Turkish version.
• Only the English version of course syllabuses are to be updated.
• Each semester should have 30 ECTS course work load (Flexibility 29-31, however not recommended)
Revision of Course Syllabuses
Learning outcomes are statements of what a learner is expected to know, understand and/or be able to demonstrate after completion of a process of learning. (ECTS Users’ Guide)
1.
2.
3.
Knowledge/understanding Skills Competences
• • • A shift from intentions of teacher (aims of a module/course) to achievement of learner From teacher based to student based learning The learning outcomes are student-focused and conveys the learning success of the student, not the aim of education
Student Based Approach (Outcome based approach)
what the students are expected to be able to do at the end of the module or programme Learning outcomes: what it is expected that students should be able to do at the end of the learning period.
Focus to gain these learning outcomes Assestment: How much of these outcomes are succesfully gained?
What students can do at the end of a learning opportunity defines the learning outcome
How to Write Learning Outcomes?
• • •
The Programme and Learning Outcomes
should be written by using Bloom’s Taxonomy (1956).
Bloom (1956) proposed that knowing is composed of six successive levels arranged in a hierarchy.
Bloom suggested certain verbs that characterise the ability to demonstrate these processes.

While writing PO and LO…
• • • • Avoid verbs like “know”, “understand”, “be familiar with”, “be exposed to” (Osters and Tiu) “Try to avoid ambiguous verbs such as “understand”, “know”, “be aware” and “appreciate”. (Sheffield Hallam Guide).
“Care should be taken in using words such as ‘understand’ and ‘know’ if you cannot be sure that students will understand what it means to know or understand in a given context” (Univ NSW).
Certain verbs are unclear and subject to different interpretations in terms of what action they are specifying…… These types of verbs should be avoided: know, become aware of, appreciate, learn, understand, become familiar with. (American Association of Law Libraries).
Programme and Learning Outcomes should:
• • • • • • • identify important learning requirements be achievable and assessable use clear language easily understandable to students Avoid vague terms like know, understand, learn, be familiar with, be exposed to, be acquainted with, and be aware of. These terms are associated with teaching objectives rather than learning outcomes.
Ensure that the learning outcomes of the module relate to the overall outcomes of the programme.
The learning outcomes must be observable and measurable.
Ensure that the learning outcomes are capable of being assessed.
At the end of this module/course the student will be able to …
Then follow with a verb. Useful ones include:
analyse, appraise apply, calculate, choose, compare, contrast, create, criticise, demonstrate, derive ,describe ,design, develop, differentiate, discuss, explain, evaluate, extrapolate, formulate ,identify ,list, measure, name, plan, plot, postulate, predict, present, propose, recall, recognise, use, utilise
