Abstract
As higher education tends to witness drastic changes, the quality of output is highly valued, which demands continuous innovation in the teaching process, especially on assessing students’ learning outcomes from the training program’s requirements. The paper outlines the relationship between student assessment and other components in the teaching process, performance indicator (PI) for the program learning outcomes, which refers to teaching, testing and assessment activities. At the same time, the article presents the process of setting up and evaluating the achievements of students through the method of PI evaluation based on the program’s learning outcomes. The current situation is that the learning outcomes of undergraduate training programs in various universities in the country tend to be developed in a general and highly integrated manner, thus widening the gap between the learning outcomes’ requirements and the actual teaching, testing, and evaluation activities of the module/ subject.
