gained, skills mastered, and attitudes or values developed (Course objectives
are directly related to program goals).

activities that provide the means through which students will achieve the
stated objectives of the course. (Each process is referenced to a General
Education Outcome, a transitional strategy, or an active learning strategy.)
D. Expectations for Student Performance--A detailed list of specific
performance expectations that includes the specific skills, tasks, knowledge,
and attitudes or values the student will attain or be able to do upon
completion of the course (Expectations for student performance are directly
related to course objectives.)

review of measures of program goal achievement and other indicators of
effectiveness in support of College goals.
