Aligning Goals with my course


The content material to be covered in different learning outcomes has to be delivered at different cognitive levels. These cognitive levels vary from learn to understand to evaluate to apply. Based on these cognitive levels a suitable teaching strategy needs implemented and an appropriate assessment strategy devised.

Some of the assessments are formative thus providing students timely feedback where as some of the assessments are summative. Comprehensive real world projects with presentation and oral defense cover all the cognitive levels effectively: Learn the basic definition; Understand the concepts behind them; Evaluate and apply these concepts to a given scenario and give recommendations.
