WHAT IS AN OUTCOME?So many definitions, so little time.
• Instructional – Did the student acquire the knowledge, skills, and/or habits we expected?
• Educational – Did they earn the credential that they were pursuing?
• Societal/Life Outcomes – Did the education received have an impact on the person and their community?

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE INDUSTRY?
- What questions can you ask of the student to deepen your own understanding of their field of interest?- Do you know living artists? Who is your
favorite director? But who edited your favorite movie?
- Ask your student about their creative process. What excites them? When did they first realize this is what they wanted to do?

FRAMING OUTCOMES
- Understand that these are real things that people do
- Be honest- In every industry there is failure and movement
and adjustment and reflection and perspiration.
- Center the conversation on them- We may be thinking of transferable skills or the
likelihood of winning the Pulitzer – but share your pragmatic excitement with them.
- Plant seeds of other opportunities to complement their program of study.
