The assessment in question measured the impact of the social investment, specifically the improvement in learning among students who had participated in the educational program compared with those who had not. Therefore, the element being assessed is impacts, as it is measuring the effect or outcome of the investment. Inputs refer to the resources, such as money and staff, put into the program. Outputs are the direct products or services that result from the program, such as the number of students who participated or the number of classes held. Value creation refers to the overall value or benefit generated by the investment.
