Description
Summary:This good practice guide was developed as part of the OLT project "Renewing first year curricula for social sciences and humanities in the context of discipline threshold standards". The project investigated what we need to do in first year in order to prepare our students to meet the Threshold Learning Outcomes (TLOs) for the discipline by the time they graduate. The TLOs for Sociology were developed by The Australian Sociological Association (TASA), under the leadership of Associate Professor Karen Farquharson. A discipline reference group comprising academics, employers and members of TASA developed the TLOs in consultation with sociologists and academics throughout Australia.
