Pilot Project: Passport Learning Outcomes and Proficiency Criteria

Passport Learning Outcomes Teams

Passport Learning Outcomes Teams

Faculty representatives from participating institutions developed Passport Learning Outcomes (PLO) for the three lower-division general education disciplines of the Passport initiative: oral communication, written communication, and quantitative literacy. The PLO Teams – one for each content area – reviewed, compared, and contrasted the five sets of learning outcomes that were submitted by each pilot state to negotiate an agreed-upon set of learning outcomes – the Passport Learning Outcomes. Institutions that sign the Passport Agreement will be acknowledging that their lower-division general education learning outcomes in these three disciplines map to and are congruent with the Passport Learning Outcomes.
