What is the difference between learning outcomes and learning objectives?

Learning objectives are written from the instructor’s perspective and describe what the instructor intends to teach during a course. They focus on teaching goals and instructional strategies. Learning outcomes are written from the student’s perspective and describe what students are expected to know, do, or demonstrate by the end of the course or program. They focus on measurable achievements and skills gained through learning.
