Knowledge Outcomes Rubric – Social and Behavioral Sciences & Public Services
Definition
Social and Behavioral Sciences, and Public Services, focus on the study of individual and social experience, thought and behavior, as well as numerous aspects of a functioning society.
Framing Language
Social and behavioral science is the systematic study of society, organizations, groups and individuals focused on the ways in which people and organizations behave individually and collectively. Social and behavioral sciences attempt to achieve systematic and objective knowledge of internal experience and external behavior through the formulation and testing of applicable theories. Courses in these disciplines advance student learning of the systematic processes of inquiry and analysis. Inquiry is a systematic process of exploring issues, objects or works through the collection and analysis of evidence. Analysis is the process of breaking complex topics or issues into parts. Through the inquiry and analysis process students will:
• Identify or recall the requested facts, vocabulary, definitions, terms, concepts and people within a discipline.
• Recognize relevant concepts to solve problems and ask pertinent questions regarding the subject of interest.
• Use appropriate sources to collect applicable information to address a task.
• Apply relevant concepts from multiple sources if needed to correctly solve a problem and describe the evidence used to support the
argument.
