Description

The National Qualifications Authority of the UAE's Ministry of Education has specific general guidelines and outcomes for learners at all levels of education in the UAE, called the National Qualifications Framework (QF). This session will focus on the Level 7 descriptors (Bachelor's degree level) in the QF. The main purpose of the session is to raise awareness in the novice teacher of how HCT Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) must align with the QF Outcomes, and how Course Learning Outcomes must align with PLOs . Participants will learn about the guidelines, SOLO Taxonomy and corresponding verbs, and writing SMART goals based on the SOLO verbs.
