Learning Matters
The Idaho Expectations
(University-Level Learning Outcomes)

University level learning outcomes broadly describe expected and desired consequences of learning through integrated curricular and co-curricular experiences. The outcomes become an expression of the desired attributes of an educated person and guide coherent, integrated and intentional educational experiences. They provide us with a basis for ongoing assessment to continuously improve teaching and learning.

1. Learn and integrate - Through independent learning and collaborative
     study, attain, use and develop knowledge in the arts, humanities,
     sciences and social sciences, with disciplinary specialization and the
     ability to integrate information across disciplines.

2. Think and create - Use multiple thinking strategies to examine real-world
     issues, explore creative avenues of expression, solve problems and make
     consequential decisions.

3. Communicate – Acquire, articulate, create and convey intended meaning
     using verbal and non-verbal methods of communication that demonstrate
     respect and understanding in a complex society.

4. Clarify purpose and perspective – Explore one's life purpose and meaning
     through transformational experiences that foster an understanding of self,
     relationships and diverse global perspectives.
5. Practice citizenship – Apply principles of ethical leadership, collaborative
     engagement, socially responsible behavior, respect for diversity in an
     interdependent world and a service-oriented commitment to advance
     and sustain local and global communities.
