What are Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs)?

students to know, think, feel, and be able to do
by the end of the learning experience.
SLOs define what students will take away from a
class or program after completing all course
work.
SLOs can also include service or
non-instructional areas that still provide
educational experiences for students.
