What are Learning Outcomes? Types, Benefits, and Examples of Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes are measurable educational aspects that include students’ knowledge, skills, and abilities to face real-life problems and not just the course outcomes & program outcomes.

1. Learning Outcomes (LO)-
Everything You Need To Know

2. Introduction To Learning Outcomes

“One learns from books and examples only that certain things
can be done. Actual learning requires that you do those things.”
This quote reflects that learning is a lifelong process.
Agree?
Likewise, the learning outcomes –the result or impact of learning
can’t be confined to grades or marks obtained by learners in exams.

3. What is a Learning Outcome?
3
A learning outcome is what the learner should be able to do/perform
as a result of some learning experience.
In the context of formal education-
Students should be able to do at the end of a program/ course/
instructional unit.
In a broader perspective-
It's the amalgamation of a learner’s knowledge, skill set, and the
ability to leverage them in real-time situations.

4. NEP 2020 -Initiative By The Government Of
India
Clearly, the concept of learning outcomes extends beyond the
“knowledge” attained by students in academics.
This is why -New Education Policy (NEP 2020)has
emphasized defining & achieving the best learning outcomes
by encouraging institutions to offer “student-centric” education.
