| Summary: | Improving education quality and quality assurance (QA) have become the most distinctive themes of higher education (HE) reform in the 21st century. Although student learning outcomes (SLOs) are the most direct evidence to HE quality and should be an indispensable element and the starting point of education evaluation, in most countries evaluations have not regarded students as the most important target in their systems. The present paper is a case study of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) International Quality Group (CIQG) Quality Platform Provider (Platform) pilot review (Review) of DeTao Advanced Class, exploring a new paradigm for quality assurance: the Platform Review of SLOs in non-traditional education providers. The characteristics of the CHEA/CIQG Platform are as follows: 1) emphasizing the result review of actual and expected outcomes; 2) the product review of student learning outcomes; 3) the process review of student learning experiences; and 4) the development review of student value-added learning.
