Introduction

We’ve all seen Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) or Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) that sound inspiring… but leave faculty, students, and accreditors scratching their heads. “Students will demonstrate leadership.” Lovely sentiment, but what does that mean in practice? Writing strong outcomes is an art and a science. This week, we’ll explore frameworks like Bloom’s Taxonomy and Fink’s Significant Learning framework, along with how Large Language Models (LLMs) can serve as editors, spot weaknesses, and suggest refinements. Strong outcomes don’t just live on paper—they drive teaching, learning, and student success.

High-Impact Practices (HIPs) are often described as the “secret sauce” of higher education—engaging assignments, applied learning, and meaningful reflection. But let’s be real: just because something is called a HIP doesn’t mean it automatically delivers deep learning. When done well, HIPs are structured, equitable, and measurable. This week, we’ll look at how to design HIPs that not only sparkle in theory but also actually move the needle on student success.
