III. OUTCOMES AND ASSESSMENTS
1. COURSE OUTCOMES/OBJECTIVES:
List the primary instructional objectives of the class. Formulate some of them in terms of specific
measurable student accomplishments, e.g., specific knowledge and/or skills to be attained as a result of
completing this course. For degree-applicable courses, include objectives in the area of ”critical thinking.”
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
Understand the principles of hydraulics and pneumatics, perform repairs on hydraulic and
pneumatic systems, provide preventative maintenance, and troubleshooting of hydraulic and
pneumatic systems.

2. COLLEGE LEVEL CRITICAL THINKING TASKS/ASSIGNMENTS:
Degree applicable courses must include critical thinking tasks/assignments. This section need not be
completed for non-credit courses. Describe how the course requires students to independently analyze,
synthesize, explain, assess, anticipate and/or define problems, formulate and assess solutions, apply
principles to new situations, etc.
Students will determine applied force by calculating surface area and pressures. Students analyze
parts and determine failures. Students will anticipate potential failures by understanding design
characteristics.
3. ASSESSMENT
Degree applicable courses must have a minimum of one response in category 1, 2, or 3. If category 1 is
not checked, the department must explain why substantial writing assignments are an inappropriate basis
for at least part of the grade.
1. Substantial writing assignments, including:
essay exam(s)
term or other paper(s)
written homework
reading report(s)
laboratory report(s)
other (specify) _____
If the course is degree applicable, substantial writing assignments in this course are inappropriate
because:
The course is primarily computational in nature.
The course primarily involves skill demonstrations or problem solving.
Other rationale (explain) __________________________________________
2. Computational or Non-computational problem-solving demonstrations, including:
exam(s)
quizzes
homework problems
laboratory report(s)
field work
other (specify)_______
3. Skill demonstrations, including:
class performance(s)
other (specify)____
4. Objective examinations, including:
multiple choice
completion
field work
performance exam(s)
true/false
other (specify)
matching items
5. Other (specify) ____________________________________
NOTE: A course grade may not be based solely on attendance.

REQUIRED READING, WRITING, AND OTHER OUTSIDE OF CLASS ASSIGNMENTS:
Over an 18-week presentation of the course, 3 hours per week are required for each unit of credit. ALL
Degree Applicable Credit classes must treat subject matter with a scope and intensity which require the
student to study outside of class. Two hours of independent work done out of class are required for each
hour of lecture. Lab and activity classes must also require some outside of class work. Outside of the
regular class time the students in this class will be doing the following:
Study
Answer questions
Skill practice
Required reading
Problem solving activity or exercise
Written work (essays/compositions/report/analysis/research)
Journal (reaction and evaluation of class, done on a continuing basis throughout the
semester)
Observation of or participation in an activity related to course content (e.g., play, museum,
concert, debate, meeting, etc.)
Field trips
