Learning Outcomes Assessment
The last requirement for the Psychology major is a course called Learning Outcomes Assesments. It is a zero-credit course, but don’t worry: it’s not a real class. At some point by the end of the semester, you are asked to take an exam (that isn’t graded)—and that’s it. Its sole purpose is to see how much of the knowledge being taught in the Psychology curriculum is actually being retained in students’s memory at the time of graduation. It is used by professors to improve their teaching, and make sure that students actually learn the material that will prepare them for their future as Psychologists.
