Which term is used to categorize considerations about outcomes and objectives in class design?

• A. Outcome and Objective Considerations
• B. Class Vision
• C. Flow
• D. SMART Goals

Answer: (A)

When planning a class, you organize around what participants should achieve (the outcomes) and what you want them to learn or accomplish (the objectives). The term that explicitly labels this planning focus is "Outcome and Objective Considerations." It serves as the framework for selecting activities, sequencing, cues, and assessments that directly support those desired results.

Flow refers to how you move from one segment to the next, including transitions and pacing, which is about structure rather than the specific goals you’re aiming for. SMART goals describe a method for making goals specific and measurable, but they’re a goal-setting tool rather than the overall category that groups thinking about outcomes and objectives. Class Vision describes the overall purpose or vibe of the class, not the concrete considerations about outcomes and objectives.
