ILOs #6 and #7 ensure students develop critical AI literacy โ evaluating accuracy, bias, and limitations of AI outputs, and reflecting on ethical use of AI in psychology coursework. These are not optional extensions; they are core assessable outcomes.
| # | Intended Learning Outcome | Bloom's Level | Alignment |
|---|---|---|---|
| ILO 1 | Analyze the key principles of classical conditioning (acquisition, extinction, generalization, discrimination) using real-world examples | Analyze | Core content mastery |
| ILO 2 | Differentiate between classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and observational learning by identifying defining characteristics in case scenarios | Analyze | Comparative understanding |
| ILO 3 | Apply operant conditioning principles (reinforcement, punishment, schedules) to design a behavior modification plan for a real-world scenario | Apply | Practical application |
| ILO 4 | Evaluate the strengths and limitations of learning theories in explaining human behavior across diverse contexts and cultures | Evaluate | Critical thinking |
| ILO 5 | Collaboratively construct a group presentation that synthesizes learning theories to explain a complex human behavior phenomenon | Create | Social Constructivism alignment |
| ILO 6 AI Literacy | Demonstrate AI literacy by critically evaluating AI-generated explanations of learning theories, identifying inaccuracies, biases, and limitations, and making independent judgments about when to trust or override AI-generated content | Evaluate | AI literacy outcome |
| ILO 7 AI Ethics | Reflect on the ethical considerations of using AI to support learning, including maintaining academic integrity and independent reasoning when using AI tools in psychology coursework | Evaluate | AI literacy + ethical judgment |
