FLO Learning Outcomes

Learning Outcomes - Learning Activities

The following list identifies the intended learning outcomes for guided learning activities (also referred to as mini-sessions) and the ongoing activities that each participant completes regularly through the five weeks. Teams of participants will use these ILOs to guide their facilitation of weekly activities.

Although formal learning assessment is not required, team facilitators will be asked to reflect on participant (and their own) learning when they complete the post-session FLIF form ("FLIF" stands for Feel, Like, Improve, Feedback).

In addition, participants reflect on their learning experience and provide feedback to the team facilitators.
