What term outlines the knowledge and skills to be acquired in a course unit?

• A. Unit Learning Outcomes
• B. Effectiveness
• C. Cost
• D. Evaluating Criminal Cases

Answer: (A)

Setting clear learning goals focuses on what students should know and be able to do by the end of a course unit. Unit Learning Outcomes lay out the knowledge and skills to be acquired and then guide teaching activities, required assessments, and how success is measured. They provide a concrete target for both teaching and learning, ensuring everything stays aligned with what the students are expected to achieve. Other terms describe different ideas: effectiveness is about how well the unit achieves its aims, cost concerns resources, and evaluating criminal cases refers to a process rather than the learning targets.
