There are three types of Goal and three types of Subgoal on Makerble

Types of Goal

Types of subgoal

Activity Goal

None

Participation Goal

None

Outcome Goal

Tickbox sub goal (Binary indicator)

Multiple Choice sub goal (Scale indicator)

Numerical sub goal (Value indicator)

Subgoals (Indicators) must belong to an Outcome Goal

When to use each type of Goal and Subgoal

Activity Goal

Use this to track the number of each type of activity or event you do.

Examples: “Sessions Run”, “Events Held”, “Workshops Delivered”

Participation Goal

Use this to track people’s attendance at your activities and events

Example: “Attendees”

Outcome Goal

Use this to describe the difference that your work makes

Example: “People increase their confidence”

Tickbox subgoal

Use this to track an individual’s progress using a tickbox.

This is useful when a subgoal is binary, i.e. it is either Yes or No

Example: “Got a Job”, “Got an Increase in Benefits”, “Got a new home”

Multiple Choice subgoal

Use this to track an individual’s progress along a scale with a set of predefined levels.

Example: “Level of confidence.” With levels: Low, Medium, High

Numerical subgoal

Use this to track an individual’s track progress using a number.

Examples: (Number of) “Presentations given”, (Number of) “Ideas proposed”

Get Started with Goals and Subgoals

Create New Goals and Subgoals

  • Create an Activity Goal

  • Create a Participation Goal

  • Create an Outcome Goal

  • Create a Tickbox subgoal

  • Create a Multiple Choice subgoal

  • Create a Numerical subgoal

Use Goals and Subgoals

  • Add an Activity Goal to a project

  • Add a Participation Goal to a project

  • Add an Outcome Goal to a project

  • Add a Tickbox subgoal to a project

  • Add a Multiple Choice subgoal to a project

  • Add a Numerical subgoal to a project

Log progress towards a Goal or subgoal

Rules that govern where Changes, Outcomes and Indicators appear

Note: we sometimes use Metric / Goal / Sub Goal / Outcome / Indicator interchangeably. But they do have specific meanings as explained in the table below.

Name in the back-end

Rules

Name in the front-end

Change

In order for a CHANGE to appear on a Project Page, it must be in Stage 1 or Stage 2

If it is in Stage 1 it is called an Activity Change. (The back-end name for Stage 1 is Activity Outputs)

If it’s in Stage 2 it’s called a Participation Change. (The back-end name for Stage 1 is Participation Outputs)

Now we are using the term “Goals”

We call the STAGE 1 changes “Activity Goals”

We call the STAGE 2 changes “Participation Goals (or sometimes Engagement Goals”

Indicator

Must be of one of three types:

  • scale

  • binary

  • value

In order to appear in the Create Story page or to be added to a Project, the indicator must be part of an Outcome

Now we call the indicators “sub goals” because we call the Outcome an Outcome Goal

Outcomes

Must be in Stage 3, Stage 4 or Stage 5.

Stage 3 is called Short-term otucomes in the back-end

Stage 4 is called Medium term Outcomes in the back-end

Stage 5 is called Long-term Outcomes in the back-end

Now we call them “Outcome Goals”
