  1. Writing Instructional Objectives

  2. What is an objective? • A statement describing a proposed change of what the learner can do when (s)he has successfully completed a learning experience.

  3. Get Smart… Specific Measurable Attainable Rewarding Timed

  4. The ABCD's of Objectives AAudience: Who is this objective for? B Behavior: What will be measured? C Conditions: Under what conditions? D Degree: To what degree?

  5. Audience Behavior A B Objectives C D Condition Degree

  6. Examples of Clear Wording Poor Better Examples: to know to write to understand to recite to appreciate to compare to believe to describe to enjoy to construct to grasp to solve

  7. Example • Students enrolled in ALEC 611 will be able to write 3 objectives (affective, behavioral, cognitive) with at least one in the higher domain of learning using the guidelines from the lecture and web readings.

  8. 3 Domains of Learning Cognitive, Affective, Psychomotor

  9. Cognitive (lack of knowledge) Acquisition of information and concepts related to course content.

  10. Cognitive Domain Instructional objectives should be written such that all levels of knowledge are addressed. Bloom's six cognitive levels are: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation

  11. Cognitive Domain Instructional Objectives Knowledge list, recite, selectComprehension explain, describeApplication interview, construct, solveAnalysis compare/contrast, analyzeSynthesis debate, describeEvaluation evaluate, discriminate Objectives are more easily written for “lower order” cognitive skills

  12. Affective(lack of desire) Fostering attitudes, feelings, and preferences

  13. Affective Domain Receiving: Learner’s willingness to attend Responding: Learner’s active participation Valuing: Worth or value to learner Organization: Building a consistent value system; resolving conflicts. Characterization:“life style”

  14. Affective Domain Instructional Objectives Receiving watch, listen, read, view Responding respond, reply, describe Valuing choose, decide, pick Organization hypothesize, outline, diagram Characterization act, do, behave, demonstrate

  15. Psychomotor(lack of skill) Competence in the performance of procedures, operations, methods, and techniques.

  16. Psychomotor Domain Perception: sense organs guide motor activity Set: readiness to take action Guided Response: imitation; trial & error Mechanism: habitual movement Complex Overt Response: skillful performance of motor acts Adaption: modification of movement Origination: creation of new movement

  17. Psychomotor Domain Instructional Objectives Perception touch, feel, draw Set desire, willingness, eagerness Guided Response watch and do with help Mechanism do alone; less time, without describing the steps Complex Overt Response do without error Adaption do in a different way Originationdo in a new way
