SPEAKER: This tutorial is a detailed step-by-step guide
that will teach you how to, one, enter course learning
outcomes for instructional programs in Taskstream,
and two, map course learning outcomes
to institutional learning outcomes.
I'm going to switch my screen.
When you log into Taskstream, you
will see the name of your program and the courses
you have access to.
Locate the course you would like to enter content.
Click on the Course Learning Outcomes, CLOs, Workspace
underneath the course.
I will be using a demonstration Course Learning Outcomes
Workspace.
On the left hand side, you will see the standard requirements
area.
Click Learning Outcomes.
When you are ready to enter content into a requirement,
click the green Check Out button in the upper right hand
corner of the page.
This allows only the user who checks out
the space to be the only person working on that space.
You would not want another faculty member making changes
while you are working on it, so there's only one person
at one time in a space.
Right now, the shell is empty, so we need
to put information in there.
Click Create, New Set.
In the text box, by set name, you
can either type in the catalog course prefix and number,
for example, Comp Studies 72, CLOs.
Or you can enter the title of the course, Logic
in Argumentation.
For your course learning outcomes,
do not check the box allowing outcomes and other sets
to be aligned to outcomes in this set.
By not checking the box, this allows
you to document your outcomes within this particular set.
Click Continue.
Click Create New Outcome.
Type in a short CLO label next to the outcome,
for example, CLO 1, Critical Thinking.
Type the full CLO into the box labeled Description.
Remember that CLOs are assumed to follow
the phrase, "upon successful completion of this course."
With the assumption, leave out this phrase.
Once information is entered, click Continue.
Click Add Another Outcome, CLO 2, Oral Communication.
I will then type in the full CLO into the box
labeled description.
Click Continue.
Once you have entered all of your course learning outcomes,
click Back to all Outcome Sets.
Something to note, it is recommended
to have three to five CLOs.
You will see that the system generated your CLO set.
If you make a mistake, it is easy to edit.
If you want to reorder CLOs, click the Reorder button.
If you want to edit the title or your CLO set,
click the Edit Set Name button.
And if you want to edit the title of the CLO,
or the CLO description, Click the blue Edit
on the right side.
Now it's time to map close to institutional learning
outcomes.
Institutional learning outcomes, ILOs,
represent core competencies that all students, regardless
of academic program of study are expected
to acquire upon completion of Chaffey College's
associate degree or certificate programs.
Institutional learning outcomes were originally
called core competencies.
CLOs should align with both program
learning outcomes and institutional learning
outcomes.
On the right side, click Map.
Click Create New Mapping.
In the drop down menu, next to Select Category of Set
to Map to, select Goal Sets Distributed to,
Highlight this.
Click Go.
Select Institutional Learning Outcomes, and click Continue.
Select the appropriate institutional learning outcome
to map your course of learning outcomes
by checking the boxes next to the institutional learning
outcome's abbreviation.
You can select more than one if applicable.
You want to keep in mind that we are only
mapping this particular CLO to institutional learning
outcomes.
Then repeat the process.
Once you have mapped each outcome
to the institutional learning outcomes,
click Check In on the upper right hand corner.
On the screen, you can return to the work area.
But you also have the option of adding and submitting a comment
to the revision history log.
Please be advised that once a comment is entered here,
it cannot be edited or removed.
It's important to know that comments are not required.
