Good SLOs are learner-centered, key to the course's mission, meaningful to students and faculty, and represent a range of thinking skills. SLOs focus on the knowledge, skills, abilities, and attitudes students gain. Sources that inform SLOs include an institution's mission statement, government educational standards, competencies required by professions, national development goals, and international trends.
