Outputs are the services, products or facilities provided by an organisation Total number on the site*: 924 entries Example: http://www.globalvaluexchange.org/outcomes/truancy-and-exclusion-from-school-%28change-in%29/ *Correct as of 2nd February 2014
Technical Information: Indicators Defined as: An indicator measures how much of that change has occurred for that stakeholder. Not just whether it has happened or not. Crucially, indicators can be objective (based upon facts) or subjective (based on someone’s opinion) Other terms: Metrics, Measures Total number on the site*: 886 entries Example: http://www.globalvaluexchange.org/indicators/activities-outside-the-home,-for-example-membership-of-clubs-or-volunteering/ *Correct as of 2nd February 2014
Technical Information: Valuations Defined as: Outcomes have different levels of importance to stakeholders. These levels are reflected in the value that stakeholders place on each outcome. Economic value is the most commonly used and understood valuation of things and so we use financial proxies to express relative value of an outcome to that stakeholder. Other terms: N/A but there are a number of different types of valuations which rely on a different approach & methodology.

Technical Information: Outcome Groups Defined as: An outcome group is a way of classifying the entries on the site. There are many different taxonomies that exist. This is the one we have chosen to use Other terms: Outcome Domains, Areas, Buckets Total number on the site*: 9 outcome groups. Example: Click here to view all *Correct as of 2nd February 2014
Technical Information: Chain of Events Defined as: A chain of events allows users to make connections between outcome entries. The nature of change is that one change will lead to another. This must be a sequence of events that has been observed and can be proved with some evidence. Other terms: N/A ‘Theory of Change’ is a commonly used term at the moment. A chain of events on the GVE may be a part of an organisations theory of change. Total number on the site*: approx 300 Example: http://www.globalvaluexchange.org/outcomes/frequency-of-truanting-%28change-in%29/ *Correct as of 2nd February 2014
Technical Information: Outcome Matrix Table Defined as: An Outcome table is a way of visualising a set of outcomes that are used by an organisation. The table is configured by stakeholder and outcome group and allows users to quickly browse all of the outcomes from one organisation.

Technical Information: Full Entry Sets Vs Incomplete Entry Sets Defined as: A full entry set is when all five steps of the adding process have been achieved and connections have been made between an outcome; a stakeholder; an indicator a valuation and a chain of events An incomplete entry set is simply when some but not all of the above have been completed. For example there could be an outcome that is linked to a stakeholder and an indicator but if it has not yet got any valuations associated – it remains an incomplete set. Total number on the site*: no complete sets yet because this is a new feature Example: View Incomplete Sets & Complete Sets *Correct as of 2nd February 2014
