An intervention is expected to contribute to certain desired results. specifically, given the current position value (x, y, z), the current momentum vector , plus all the acting forces, in classical physics one can plot the trajectory of the particle and predict the fut can e.g. be pupil-computer ratio, outcomes can be the extent of use of Internet and ICT in teaching and learning, whereas impact e.g. can be improvements of students ICT skills.
