Mervi Jansson – AaltoDirector, Education Partnerships
Learning Outcomes
What a learner is expected to be able to DO...
knowledge + skills + ability
Short simple statement with an action verb.
Explain, solve, compare, present, organize....
Too vague: learn, understand, appreciate...
Assessing Learning Outcomes
Is the end result enough...or is the process acutally the outcome?
Contextualised and Authentic In Finnish vocational education:
" Competence is assessed by means of vocational skills demonstrations in the most authentic settings possible. Assessment makes diverse use of different methods. "
Examples from the basic qualification in business and administration:
The student -prepares for service situations independently-serves internal and external customers according to company instructions-carries out calculations required in sales situations
Skills Demonstrations = Process and Outcome
Descriptors (satisfactory, good, excellent) help the learners understand how to improve their performance and what the working life expects.
How do you measure and document...
Based on Clark Quinn (2011), Designing mLearning,
Using mobile devices for documenting learning outcomes
Apps + cloud-based services
Learning stories - planning, process and evaluation
Student-centered and supportive
Supporting real life assessment - show instead of tell
Authentic, transparent, mobile...
Lessons Learnt
Teachers and learners need support.
Plan! What needs to be documented?How will mobile technology be
used? Ease of use, technical
requirements?Code of conduct and copyright?Encourage creativity and
choice!
