Graduate Capabilities: A framework for assessing course quality
Hart, Gail, Bowden, John, & Watters, James J. (1999) Graduate Capabilities: A framework for assessing course quality. Higher Education in Europe, 24(2), pp. 301-308.
Abstract
Three propositions about quality learning when linked to the concept of graduate capability provide a framework for examining the extent to which learning outcomes are embedded within the provision of authentic learning environments, a focus on global issues, and the development of skills to support life-long learning. A case study in nursing at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is used to illustrate a student learning experience that addresses graduate capabilities, develops an authentic learning environment, addresses global issues, and fosters the development of skills to support life-long learning.
