"There is increasing interest in the use of learning outcomes in postsecondary education,
and deliberations have surfaced with regard to their potential to serve as a tool
for advancing credit transfer. This publication assesses the conceptual foundations,
assumptions, and implications of using learning outcomes for the purposes of postsecondary
credit transfer and student mobility. Through a critical review of current approaches
to the use of learning outcomes across national and international jurisdictions, scholars
and practitioners in postsecondary education provide a multivalent examination of
their potential impacts in the unique context of Ontario and recommend future directions
for the system. The collected works are the culmination of a multi-year study entitled
Learning Outcomes for Transfer (LOFT), funded by the Ontario Council on Articulation
and Transfer (ONCAT). Contributions are authored by prominent international scholars
across countries with significant outcomes-based experiences and education reforms
(South Africa, the United States, Australia, Europe, and the United Kingdom) and an
Ontario research consortium comprising college and university experts working to advance
student pathways."
