ABSTRACT
Building on from the development of preferred graduate attributes in Chapter 6, the mapping of these attributes within programs to develop learning pathways and the identification of specific courses to support this in Chapter 7, this chapter focuses on gaining an understanding of the task at hand through an audit of learning outcomes at the course level. The chapter outlines a collaborative and non-confrontational process to systematically review existing courses in a program for the existence of knowledge and skills related to the preferred graduate attributes. The process seeks to both identify areas of strength and weakness, and consider threats and opportunities for the course. At this point the proposed audit approach addresses ‘what’s so’ in the current curriculum, which then informs the curriculum renewal strategy.
