Description
I went to my first National Collegiate Honors Council conference just this last year and was sitting in a session on national scholarships when the phrase "learning outcomes" came up. I turned to the woman behind me with whom I'd been briefly chatting before the session began and asked if this kind of evaluative structure was being implemented at her university. She rolled her eyes. "We're all just sick of it," she said. "When I list my 'learning outcomes' on my syllabuses, I just want to say, 'I have no idea what we'll learn.'"
