Learning Outcomes Management System
 

Learning Outcomes Management System (LOMS)

The School of Information System (SIS) at Singapore Management University (SMU) has developed a set of learning outcomes to guide the ongoing design of its information systems undergraduate programme. The School is using learning outcomes as a way to design and integrate an innovative curriculum. To build a shared understanding of the learning outcomes and their importance in curriculum design for both students and faculty, SIS built a Learning Outcomes Management System (LOMS).

LOMS Communication Update

Description

Aug 15, 2008 Letter to all SIS BSc (IS Management) Stakeholders:
- Employers (440 organisations)
- SIS faculty & staff
- Current BSc (IS Management) students
- BSc (IS Management) alumni
This letter was sent to all organisations that have employed our BSc (IS Management) students as interns or full time employees to make sure they understand our Learning Outcomes Framework and LOMS, and to make them aware of the role they need to play in supporting our LOMS implementation. Similarly, the same letter was sent to all SIS faculty and staff, current students, and alumni to provide them with the same information.

Guidance on how to properly complete your LOMS self-assessment at the end of each term.

Special emphasis for LOMS usage was placed on all first year students who entered SIS in academic year 2007-08. At the end of the first term, nearly all students in the freshman cohort completed their LOMS self-assessment. The SIS dean's office studied the student self-assessment information, and noted best-practices as well as common mistakes for completing the self-assessment. These best practices and common mistakes are summarised in this presentation.
Please look at this presentation prior to doing your next LOMS self-assessment.
