Curriculum Committee Notes
  • Use verbs that indicate critical thinking. Examples are in the SLO Handbook.
  • Ensure that PSLOs are assessable
  • Ensure each PSLO has at least one course mapped to it
  • Ensure all required and elective courses in the program map to at least one PSLO (*DO NOT MAP RECOMMENDED COURSES, only required courses or course electives*)
  • Map PSLOs as appropriate to college ILOs. (At minimum, you should have at least one mapping.)
  • Don’t include SLOs that relate to “meeting” exit requirements or “prepared for exam” or “ready to transfer,” as these are not LEARNING outcomes.
  • Review Outcome Report to ensure all your mappings are completed.
  • Please contact the SLO Coordinator at slocoordinator@ccsf.edu for further assistance.
