Achievement Levels

Closing thought on roles and responsibilities Trees and Forest – Some Meta-Thoughts 1)The Learning Outcomes describe what a CIRTL participant at a particular level is able to do. 2) Each institution has the freedom and the responsibility to decide how to prepare their CIRTL participants to do these outcomes. 3)Each university has the freedom and the responsibility to judge whether a participant has achieved a given level of capablity.
