The decision on the second outcome is also a department choice when the course is delivered in many sections by many faculty.<\/p>\n<p>The requirements for full and partial designation are specified in each rubric. The rubrics contain a set of elements (rows) and at the top of the rubrics are the rules specifying how many elements must be assessed for full or partial designation. For example, in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/941\/3_Social_Behaviorial_Sciences.pdf\">Social and Behavioral Science rubric<\/a> there are 8 elements (rows in the rubric) and for full designation you need to include 5 in your course. For partial designation you need to include 3 elements in your course. Regardless of whether you choose a full or partial second outcome, the outcome needs to be assessed.<\/p>\n<p>There are four additional important differences between the full and partial summarized in the table below.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The syllabus <i>must<\/i>&nbsp;at minimum contain mention of all full student-learning outcomes, while for the partial outcomes you&nbsp;<i>must not<\/i>&nbsp;include them in the syllabus.<\/li>\n<li>If you want a student to select your course to satisfy 1 of the 12 outcomes, it must be a full outcome. Partial outcomes do not count toward the 40-credit general education requirement. Students cannot add partial outcomes from multiple courses to make a full outcome.<\/li>\n<li>If your course has 2 full outcomes, then students can satisfy 2 of the 12 outcomes with one course. Each 3-credit course counts for only 3 of the 40 required general education credits, however, so if students take a course with two full learning outcomes then the student will have 3 <em>free<\/em>&nbsp;general education credits that can be taken in any general education course.<\/li>\n<li>Students will see only the full outcomes when searching for General Education classes in the course catalog, General Education website, and eCampus.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/general-education\/faculty\/primer-for-general-education-course-proposals\/specify-the-rubric-elements\/\">Next Step<\/a>:<\/strong> Once you have decided on the second outcome, you must&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/general-education\/faculty\/primer-for-general-education-course-proposals\/specify-the-rubric-elements\/\">specify<\/a>&nbsp;the elements of the outcomes that you will assess.<\/p>\n<p><!--\/themify_builder_static--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Each course must contain two student outcomes \u2013 one that must be a full outcome and one that can be either full or partial.
