5- Program Development Videos: How to Write and Validate Learning Outcomes Using Google LM

In this video, we go deep into the essential process of writing and validating Learning Outcomes (LOs) using the power of Google LM (NotebookLM). Whether you are an educator, a curriculum developer, or a trainer, understanding how to craft specific, measurable, and attainable statements is crucial for communicating clear expectations to your students. What You Will Learn: • The Anatomy of a Learning Outcome: We break down the three essential parts of an LO: the Action Verb, the Learning Statement, and the Purpose or Condition. • Applying Bloom’s Taxonomy: Discover how to use Bloom’s six levels—from Foundational (Remember and Understand) to Reinforcing (Apply and Analyze) and Culminating (Evaluate and Create)—to set the appropriate level of expectation for your students. • AI-Powered Validation: Learn how to use Google LM as a "Sandbox" to evaluate your LOs. We demonstrate how to: 1. Upload source documents like the Learning Outcomes Manual and Bloom’s Taxonomy guides. 2. Use specific prompts to generate an evaluation grid. 3. Analyze the AI's feedback on whether an LO is "Good" or "Not Good," including its rationale and suggested alternatives. How to Write and Validate Learning Outcomes Using Google Notebook LM A Five-Step Guide to Writing and Validating Learning Outcomes Effectively ✅ Step 1: Gather Your Resources Print the following materials: Bloom’s Taxonomy of Measurable Verbs Writing Course Learning Outcomes Worksheet A Guide to Crafting and Refining Learning Outcomes Using AI (Infographic) ✅ Step 2: Watch the Training Video View Program Development Videos: How to Write and Validate Learning Outcomes Using Google LM. Pay attention to the sections on writing and validating LOs. ✅ Step 3: Draft Your Learning Outcome Use the Writing Course Learning Outcomes Worksheet. Refer to Bloom’s Taxonomy of Measurable Verbs to choose strong, measurable action verbs. Write one clear, measurable Learning Outcome. ✅ Step 4: Validate Your Learning Outcome Open Google Notebook LM. Upload the LO Learning Manual as a source document. Enter a prompt asking the model to: Evaluate if your LO is good or not. Explain why. Suggest an alternative if needed. Present results in a grid format. Example prompt: Is this a good Learning Outcome? State yes or no and explain why. If not, suggest an alternative and show everything in a grid format. ✅ Step 5: Review and Refine Check the feedback provided by Google LM. If the suggestion works, adopt it. If not, edit and refine your LO using the feedback and Bloom’s Taxonomy. #LearningOutcomes #EdTech #GoogleLM #BloomsTaxonomy #CurriculumDevelopment #InstructionalDesign #HigherEd #NotebookLM
