This episode examines the importance of learning outcomes in education, emphasizing that clearly defined goals improve learner performance and guide effective instruction. It introduces a preferred framework consisting of five distinct types of learning outcomes: competencies, movement, accomplishments, experiences, and integrated performance. Each type is uniquely suited to different educational methods, requires specific forms of evidence for documentation, and addresses varying aspects of learning. We share details about the characteristics, associated learning activities, real-world examples, and assessment tools pertinent to each of the five learning outcome types. Ultimately, the goal is for educators to understand how they can utilize a diverse range of measurable and motivating outcomes to meet broader program and learning expectations.
