Writing Goals and Objectives

An Integral Part of an Online CourseSlide2

Objectives for this Presentation

At the end of this presentation you

will:

Identify the essential characteristics of measurable course learning objectives.

Compare

and contrast educational goals

vs. educational objectives

Write

clear, measurable educational

objective using the ABCD model

Gain knowledge to develop

educational objectives that focus on the

learner as

the intended audienceSlide3

1956

Benjamin

Bloom and his

colleagues

published a

taxonomy of learner behaviors which was taken into the public schools and eventually adopted in the health profession schools. It has influenced curriculum development and driven the movement towards competency based instruction for health professionals.Bloom. B. and Krathwolh,D. (1956) Taxonomy of Educational Objectives:The Classification of Educational Goals , New York, LongmansSlide4

Let’s clarify the differences.Educational Objectives are also called:

The use of the terms “goals” and

objectives” can be confusing!

The Difference Between Goals and ObjectivesGOALS

OBJECTIVES

Broad statements

General intentions

Intangible

AbstractGenerally hard to measureSpecificPreciseTangibleConcreteMeasurableSlide6

Goals & Objectives ExampleGoals: knows about the human body.Objectives

:

SWBAT

name all of the bones in the human body as stated in the medical textbook "The Human Body"Slide7

Goal

The goal of a

learning

activity is like

a targetSlide8

ObjectivesThe objectives

are the arrows

that

help the

learner

reach the target and demonstrate masterySlide9

Can you identify the Goals?

State the definition of a complimentary medical

intervention

or therapy

.

Provide the health professional with the latest information about over the counter (OTC) anti- histamines and their side effects.Introduce the reader to a new development in the early detection of oral cancer.Be exposed to a new way of organizing paperwork.Slide10

Clue:There is only one objective on the previous

slide-

A. State

the definition of a complimentary

medical intervention

or therapy.The rest are all broad based goals!Slide11

A few things to remember about goalsEvery educational activity should have

a goal

The

goal focuses

on what the

learner will experience, rather than what the instructor will share or doIt is a broad statement of purposeSlide12

Questions

S

pecificIs there a description of a precise behavior and the situation it will performed in? Is it concrete, detailed, focused and defined?MeasurableCan the performance of the objective be observed and measured?AchievableWith a reasonable amount of effort and application can the objective be achieved? Are you attempting too much?RelevantIs the objective important or worthwhile to the learner? Is it possible to achieve this objective?Time-boundIs there a time limit, rate number, percentage or frequency clearly stated? When will the objective be accomplished?Slide14

The ABCD ApproachThe ABCD method of writing objectives is an excellent starting point for writing objectives (

Heinich

, et al., 1996). In this system, "A" is for audience, "B" is for behavior, "C" for conditions and "D" for degree of mastery needed.*

A=Audience (the learners, readers or participants, not the instructor)

Who is this activity

intended for? Be

specific!

At

the end of instruction,the students will be able to.....As you target a specific audience with your objective make sure that you are meeting the needs of all learners in that group. Slide16

B=BEHAVIOR (what the participants will do)

*

http://

edtech2.tennessee.edu/projects/bobannon/helpful_hundred.html

What exactly is it that

you want the learner to be able to do as a result of your ...The behavior is the action (verb) that describes what the learner (audience) will be able to do after the instruction.Slide17

What type of behavior do you want?Behaviors for educational objectives fall into three

categories

, called

domains

Cognitive:

Dealing with intellectual abilities; Approximately 80% of educational objectives fall into this domain; Most familiar to both instructors, authors and learnersAffective: Relating to the expression of feelings, including emotions, fears, interests, attitudes, beliefs, values and appreciations: Often the most difficult objectives to developPsychomotor: The easiest objectives to write as the behavior is easily observed and monitored. Psychomotor skills often involve the use of tools or instruments;“ Hands On” courses will contain psychomotor objectivesSlide18

C= Condition (imposed by the instructor)

States what conditions

the instructor will

impose

when the

learners are demonstrating mastery of a skill.Usually a WHEN or WHILE statement “when given a set of five unlabeled slides”“while working independently”What will the student be given or already be expected to know to accomplish the learning?Slide19

D=Degree What is “Good Enough”?

The standard or

criterion for judging the

behavioral performance.

What has to happen for

the learner to succeed?It might be:SpeedAccuracyQualityQuantitySlide20

Objective BreakdownCan you breakdown the objective?

Using the job aid the instructor will successfully write a learning objective that is observable, measurable, and clearly defined.Slide21

Quality Learning Objective-The BreakdownSlide22

Example“When given a list of 20 words, the learner will be able to identify correctly all the cognitive action verbs”.

A

udience “

the learner”

B

ehavior “identify” (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy)Condition “when given a list of 20 words”Degree “all” (100%)Slide23

Additional BenefitA clearly stated learning objective can serve two additional functions: imply a suitable teaching method; and

lead

directly to a suitable assessment method. Slide24
