Best practices in setting up Outcomes

Hi Canvas Community,

Our institution is just getting started in Canvas, migrating over from Moodle.

We are looking to implement Canvas Outcomes in order to gather the Mastery data associated with it. As we do this we see that there could be Institution, Program, and Course Outcomes that could potentially be measured by linking Outcomes and Rubrics and attaching that rubric to an Assessment. What suggestions do you have for a new institution setting up Outcomes? Do we focus on Program outcomes in order to draw the most robust data on that program and student OR should we go ahead and start with Course Level Outcomes and gather data that way? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We want to be sure we gather the most appropriate/useful Mastery information.

Thanks!
