  1. The table shows the importance and delivery of learning outcomes form the teachers’ perspective [mean importance: (nmax = 438, nmin = 436a), delivery (nmax = 420, nmin = 263)] and the standard deviations. The analysis shows that the importance of learning outcomes is rated all higher than their rate of delivery
  2. a The nmin shows the number of teachers who elvaluated all of the aspects, the nmax shows the number of teachers who evaluated at least one aspect
