Learning outcomes are explicit statements of what you want someone to learn after a lesson or experience. In this example, the learning outcome could be: After spinning on a bike for two hours, participants will be able to explain how it feels to be physically exhausted. Learning outcomes should be worded with an action verb that suggests how it can be assessed, in this case “explain.” Therefore, one way this activity could be assessed is to interview the participants and ask them to express how their exhaustion feels. There is no right or wrong in this of assessment, the goal is to get people to express how they feel. This kind of learning is called “affective” as apposed to learning factual knowledge or a physical movement task.
