From MoodleDocs
- Outcomes Explanation
- Right now (lame)

- added at site level
- selected per course
- This activity is associated with this outcome
- Only used in gradebook outcomes report
- This outcome is tagged for these outcomes and that’s it
- Outcomes - list of stuff you should know
- Right now (lame)
- Problem
- outcomes associated with courses
- If passed course, then passed outcomes/competencies
- Might have passed some outcomes, but not others. But marked all associated outcomes as passed anyways.
- If passed course, then passed outcomes/competencies
- outcomes associated with courses
- Moodlerooms
- Add outcomes to graded event, like quiz questions
- Have timeline of graded events => convert into an answer of competencies using an algorithm
- algorithm will be determined by site admin
- Graded events can have different weights
- Defined at site level, defined by accreditation body
- Have timeline of graded events => convert into an answer of competencies using an algorithm
- Have rough spec created https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Outcomes
- Future implications
- Can build recommendation engines, to help target courses to teach outcomes that someone hasn’t passed
- Would lead to open badges, gamification, Kahn Academy like course structures
- Add outcomes to graded event, like quiz questions
- ELIS (Remote Learner)
- Added additional custom profile fields for courses and users
- Rule based
- If achieve certain events, then users fields are updated and other events can be triggered
- Not timeline based
- Timeline
- provides amazing opportunity for visualization
- great to display to students of their progress
- Need to be able to associate outcome based on module, gradebook, category, etc.
- Open badges integration
- There is a project to integrate mozilla open badges into moodle
- Open badges could be award when a user receives one or more outcomes
- There is an active spec for open badges integration with development starting soon. Please have a look at the current proposals and comment here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=197834
