Many
...
schools
...
are
...
looking
...
for
...
solutions
...
that
...
allow
...
for
...
class,
...
program
...
and
...
institution
...
wide
...
reporting
...
on
...
progress
...
toward
...
learning
...
objectives.
...
The
...
recent
...
buzz
...
from
...
the
...
Spelling
...
Commission
...
and
...
the
...
push
...
for
...
outcomes
...
based
...
accreditation
...
requirements
...
and
...
program
...
evaluation
...
provides
...
us
...
with
...
an
...
opportunity
...
to
...
think
...
about
...
how
...
to
...
thoughtfully
...
address
...
these
...
concerns
...
within
...
the
...
context
...
of
...
a
...
learning
...
management
...
system.
...
The
...
Goal
...
Management
...
Tools
...
have
...
been
...
developed
...
with
...
DOE
...
PT3
...
funding
...
to
...
address
...
that
...
concern.
...
The
...
tools
...
provide
...
a
...
simple,
...
general
...
purpose
...
framework
...
for
...
articulating
...
learning
...
outcomes
...
at
...
many
...
levels
...
and
...
connecting
...
them
...
to
...
classroom
...
activity
...
and
...
assessment.
...
Goal
...
Aware
...
Assignments,
...
Data
...
points
...
and
...
Portfolios
...
could
...
be
...
implemented
...
for
...
a
...
variety
...
of
...
reasons,
...
such
...
as
...
reflection
...
on
...
personal
...
learning
...
progress,
...
teaching
...
practice
...
and/or
...
program
...
evaluation.
...
At
...
this
...
BOF
...
we
...
could
...
discuss
...
ideas
...
for
...
other

Goal
...
Aware

program

evaluation
...
strategies,
...
reporting

needs

and

implementation
...
details/concerns.
...
The
...
discussion
...
will
...
be
...
for
...
faculty
...
and
...
academic
...
administrators
...
and
...
will
...
not
...
be
...
very

technical.
