Major Considerations for Assessment at Programme-level
Recommended components in a programme assessment scheme are described in the policy paper Assessment of Student Learning in Taught Programmes. They include
(i) a statement of programme learning outcomes that cover appropriate areas of knowledge, skills and values;
(ii) course by learning outcome matrix showing how each course in the programme contributes to achieving the programme learning outcomes;
(iii) a set of course outlines with course assessment schemes;
(iv) an overall programme assessment scheme summarizing the proportion of each type of assessment strategy.
