## Abstract

There are provided methods, devices, and systems for managing and using learning outcomes. The method comprises identifying a high-level learning outcome, and identifying a first and second low-level learning outcomes associated with the high-level learning outcome. A first grade associated with the first low-level learning outcome is obtained, and a second grade associated with the second low-level learning outcome is obtained. An outcome grade is calculated based on the first grade and the second grade, which pertains to the high-level outcome.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for managing and using learning outcomes, comprising:
a) identifying a high-level learning outcome;
b) identifying a first low-level learning outcome associated with the high-level learning outcome and a second low-level learning outcome associated with the high-level learning outcome;
c) obtaining a first grade for a first activity associated with the first low-level learning outcome and obtaining a second grade for a second activity associated with second first low-level learning outcome; and
d) calculating an outcome grade pertaining to the high-level learning outcome based on the first grade and the second grade.

### Claim 2

A system for managing and using learning outcomes, comprising:
one or more processors configured to:
identify a high-level learning outcome;
identify a first low-level learning outcome associated with the high-level learning outcome and a second low-level learning outcome associated with the high-level learning outcome;
obtain a first grade for a first activity associated with the first low-level learning outcome and obtaining a second grade for a second activity associated with second first low-level learning outcome;
calculate an outcome grade pertaining to the high-level learning outcome based on the first grade and the second grade; and
one or more memories configured to provide the one or more processors with instructions.

### Claim 3

A computer program product, the computer program product being embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
identifying a high-level learning outcome;
identifying a first low-level learning outcome associated with the high-level learning outcome and a second low-level learning outcome associated with the high-level learning outcome;
obtaining a first grade for a first activity associated with the first low-level learning outcome and obtaining a second grade for a second activity associated with second first low-level learning outcome;
calculating an outcome grade pertaining to the high-level learning outcome based on the first grade and the second grade
