Future Plans for the Learning Outcome: The students proved be able to set smart goals. Next we will evaluate the students tracking and sticking with their goals. For the future we will be sure monitor the activity more closely and make it so a limited number of staff are solely responsible for this outcome and carrying it out. This will hopefully alleviate any confusion among the large staff and large population we are trying to evaluate.
