[Outcomes] Multiple sub-outcomes within an outcome?

I don't see a way to create multiple sub-outcomes within an outcome in Canvas.


We we design courses, learning designers always disconstruct a main learning goal into several sub-learing objectives which are used to design the various activities.

It would be great if we could create such structure in Canvas to create a hierarchy of outcomes under a main outcome

Best practices in assessment suggest that an outcome has multiple criteria tied to it, thus most outcomes have rubrics with multiple rows tied to them. It would be great if Canvas could allow for this feature in Canvas. That way when an outcomes report is run, the report will give a list with each criterion and the scores received.

To set this up in the current Canvas system, we have to create multiple Canvas outcomes for each institutional outcome and put them all into one rubric. You could easily create code to do this for us.

It is very frustrating the way it is now and does not align with practice.
