When evaluating a program that pairs individuals from different professional backgrounds with underprivileged children, it is important to consider indicators that assess the program's impact on both the children and the participants. Here are five evaluation indicators to consider:

Academic performance: Measure changes in the academic performance of underprivileged children involved in the program. Assess indicators such as grades, test scores, attendance rates, and academic progress. Compare the performance of children who have been paired with mentors from different professional backgrounds with a control group to determine the program's impact on educational outcomes.

Personal development: Evaluate the program's impact on the personal development of underprivileged children. Look for indicators such as improved self-esteem, increased confidence, enhanced communication skills, and the development of new interests or talents. Collect feedback from children, parents, and teachers to gauge changes in their attitudes, behavior, and social skills.

Career aspirations: Assess changes in the career aspirations and goals of underprivileged children as a result of their interactions with mentors from different professional backgrounds. Measure indicators such as increased awareness of career options expanded knowledge about various professions, and the development of career plans. Surveys, interviews, and self-assessment tools can help capture these changes.

Mentor satisfaction and engagement: Evaluate the satisfaction and engagement of mentors participating in the program. Measure indicators such as their commitment to the program, frequency, and quality of interactions with the children, and their perception of the impact they are making. Collect feedback from mentors through surveys or interviews to gain insights into their experiences and identify any areas for improvement.

Long-term relationships: Assess the longevity of relationships between mentors and underprivileged children beyond the program's duration. Measure indicators such as the duration of mentorship matches, the frequency of continued contact, and the depth of relationships maintained. Long-term relationships can indicate the success of the program in establishing meaningful connections and providing ongoing support to underprivileged children.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
