On the LMS (Canvas) at U of T, a feature called “Outcomes” allows instructors to set learning outcomes to be included in learning modules. Moreover, when creating questions in online quizzes, instructors can also align learning outcomes with specific groups of questions. In so doing, once students have completed a quiz, in addition to a grade, they will also receive a report on how well they are mastering specific learning outcomes. On the other hand, instructors will also receive a comprehensive chart that summarizes the number of students that have achieved the learning outcomes or not, as well as the in-between levels set by the instructor. I want to explore the question as to whether this additional “Outcome” report can help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and use this information to improve their self-regulation.
