University of Nebraska-Lincoln Learning Outcomes

The University of Nebraska–Lincoln is a major research institution that places extraordinary emphasis on undergraduate learning and teaching. Our investment in undergraduate education reflects a core value: Learning that prepares students for lifetime success and leadership. This institutional commitment is realized through a three-stage process of outcomes assessment occurring at the institutional, college and program level. These three stages are: 1) Determining what the desired student learning outcomes are; 2) Identifying the best measures for determining whether these outcomes have been realized; and 3) Using the results of these measures to either confirm or improve instructional and curricular practice. The adoption of learning outcomes is seen as central to academic program quality and we have boldly adopted an outcomes-based approach to our new general education program, Achievement-Centered Education (ACE). In short, we fully understand that learning is the aim of all teaching and that identifying and verifying learning outcomes is an index of quality teaching. Our efforts to develop appropriate assessment programs will be and should be a continuous work in progress.
